use :FindFirstChild()

workspace:FindFirstChild("Cool part")

edit: you should stick to naming everything without spaces anyway, it is just better practise.

Do

game.workspace["Cool part"]

Or just change the name of cool part

game.workspace.CoolPart

Instead of taking a screen shot of your screen you can do ``` which makes it a code block
Example:

print ("Hello World!")

That’d be WaitForChild. FindFirstChild will either get the first child matching the name specified or return nil if no such child exists. WaitForChild will yield the thread until a child with the given name is found or if a timeout is specified then nil will be returned if after that many seconds the child isn’t found.

Jesus, the things I say at night. I remember thinking that they said WaitForChild, but I somehow put FindFirstChild in my post. My fault.
