:point_right: Well, yes, this challenge is about working with child nodes.

But as an HTMLcollection, not a NodeList. So you'll want the children property instead of the childNodes property.

In task 1, you will simply assign a variable to refer the children as a collection. And in task 2, you will use a loop to iterate through the collection and modify their color properties.
