Hi Adam, you are really close and almost there. There are 2 minor mistakes with the code. Firstly in the first object, the name property and value is written as name.adam - this should be name: "adam". Secondly, each name value needs to be wrapped in quote marks as they are strings, otherwise they will be treated as variables.

I've fixed the errors below:

var objects = [
    {
    name: "adam",
    age: 37
  },
  {
    name: "james",
    age: 23
  },
  {
    name: "steven",
    age: 29
  }
];

Hope that helps?
