Add the items "Square" and "Circle" to the list nested under "Shapes".

What am I doing wrong? Please help.

<ol>
 <li>Stop</li>
 <li>Drop</li>
 <li>Roll</li>
</ol>
    <ul>
  <li>Shapes
       <ol>Square</ol>
    <ol>Circle</ol>
      </li>
  <li>Colors</li>
  </ul>

you almost have it. square and circle need to be list items, not lists themselves. they need to go inside an ordered list. remember that the format for a nested list. the nested list goes between the parent list tags. 

<ul>Parent List
  <ol>
      <li>item 1</li>
      <li>item 2 </li>
  </ol>
</ul>

After trial and error I finally got it, I studied why I got it wrong and it all makes sense now.
