Answer: "I tried several new foods on my trip: sushi, dragon fruit, and lychees." and "Diego studies three kinds of dance: jazz, modern, and tap."

Explanation: In the first and last sentences, there shouldn't be a colon (or any punctuation for that matter) between the verb (call/buy) and the direct object that verb takes (her grandmother, etc./seeds, etc.). In the third sentence, the colon should be placed after collage (it is not an item of the list that follows) and a comma should replace the colon before and.
