Raeed Sabree Hi there! I wish I knew what you had tried already that's failing so that we can better help you to understand whatever it is that's not working. I feel like that it would provide a better learning experience for you than just handing over the solution. Can you give us some indication of what's not clear? Thanks! :smiley:

You need 3 object literals. Each of these needs two property/value pairs. Each pair wouldl have a property and a value, separated by a colon (:), and the entire object would be inside braces {}. And remember - 3 of those.

Also, if your values are to be strings, they must be in quotes (" or ').

For example, ONE object literal might look like this:

{drink: "milk", food: "cookies"}

Your array will contain 3 like this, separated by commas (,), and the whole thing inside the brackets ([]) that you already have.
