Hints
Today’s NYT Connections puzzle brings a delightful beachy theme, perfect for those looking to escape into the world of words. While the clues may seem straightforward, be prepared for a few tricky ones that could throw you off your game! Here are some hints to nudge you in the right direction.
For the first group, think about the sun and sand. If you’re at the beach, you might encounter tall trees, endless views, and even something to take home as a souvenir. Keep your eyes peeled for a clue that talks about what you might find wrapped around a gift – that could be crucial too.
In the second part, when it comes to feeding our minds with words, consider what could bring sound before a joyous occasion. A cautious approach to these clues is critical, especially if you’re looking at a reference to a certain species known for its unique birthing style. A beloved show with smart humor might just sneak in here as well!
