Blank-style Connections are often the ones that defeat me. In hindsight, the 
one included today  BABY [BLANK]  should have been easy. After all, Baby 
boomer, baby steps, baby blues and baby teeth are all established phrases. 
But in the heat of Connections battle, those links simply didn't occur to me. 

Still, it didn't hurt me today. Yellow  playground equipment  was an easy 
one, and both green and blue were comfortable solves after a bit of thought.

NYT Connections is one of several increasingly popular word games made by the 
New York Times. It challenges you to find groups of four items that share 
something in common, and each group has a different difficulty level: green 
is easy, yellow a little harder, blue often quite tough and purple usually 
very difficult. 

On the plus side, you don't technically need to solve the final one, as 
you'll be able to answer that one by a process of elimination. What's more, 
you can make up to four mistakes, which gives you a little bit of breathing 
room. 

It's a little more involved than something like Wordle, however, and there 
are plenty of opportunities for the game to trip you up with tricks. For 
instance, watch out for homophones and other word games that could disguise 
the answers. 

It's playable for free via the NYT Games site on desktop or mobile.
