h1 { font-family: 'Changa One', 'sans-serif';
}
I even tried:
h1 { font-family: 'sans-serif';
}
h1 , h2 { font-family: 'sans-serif';
}
h1 , h2 { font-family: 'Changa One', 'sans-serif';
}

h1 , h2 { font-family: 'Changa One', sans-serif;}
Give that a go and let me know how you get on!
Edit! Milan beat me to it!

Courses Plus Student 94,610 PointsHi Mark,
You already have the answer but I wanted to point out that the css you tried is completely valid css, just not what the challenge wanted.
When you put quotes around
sans-serifthen the browser is looking for a font that is literally named "sans-serif" similar to how it will first look for a font named "Changa One"When you use it without the quotes then it becomes the
sans-serifcss keyword. This instructs the browser to retrieve the default sans-serif font, whatever that might be.That means this is also completely valid:
font-family: 'sans-serif', sans-serif;
