Looking for Tuesday’s Strands hints, spangram and answers? You can find them here:
Tomorrow, and tomorrow, and tomorrow, Creeps in this petty pace from day to day, To the last syllable of recorded time; And all our yesterdays have lighted fools The way to dusty death. Out, out, brief candle!
Actually, cancel that. We might need the candle, or at least some form of light, if we’re going to solve today’s Strands grid.
The latest game on the NYTs Games App is a lot of fun—a classic twist on those word grid games we played as kids. The big difference? Every single letter on the grid belongs to a word, and every word belongs to a theme.

Today’s Strands Breakdown
Neverland is such an on-the-nose theme word that I wonder if the New York Times is even trying at this point. Could we get something less obvious next time?

CROCODILE and LAGOON were the only ones that gave me any trouble.
