How to remember hiragana characters

Some of the hiragana characters look like something already familiar or remind you of a word. Here are some examples that I use.

The hiragana character "to" looks like a toe.
The hiragana character "u" looks like an ear.
The hiragana character "he" reminds me of Mount St. Helens.
The hiragana character "ya" reminds me of the word "yap" because it looks like a "P".
