Hi Ariel, Make sure your label's for= attribute matches the input's id= attribute, then you can click on the label to toggle your checkbox.

<input type="checkbox" id="shipping" value="fast_shipping">
<label for="shipping">Fast Shipping</label><br>
<input type="checkbox" id="newsletter" value="subscribe">
<label for="newsletter">Subscribe to Newsletter</label><br>

OMG that was so silly of me to have missed my "for" attribute matching with my "id." Thank you :)

The answer is: 

<input type="checkbox" id="shipping" value="fast_shipping">
      <label for="shipping">Fast Shipping</label><br>
      <input type="checkbox" id="newsletter" value="subscribe">
      <label for="newsletter">Subscribe to Newsletter</label><br>
