Fidgeting with toys or rings, say crossword clue
118 Down · WSJ Crossword, October 30, 2026 · 3 letters
Explanation
The answer to “Fidgeting with toys or rings, say” is TIM. It appears as 118 Down in the Wall Street Journal crossword of October 30, 2026, a Friday puzzle titled “Finding the Sweet Spot” by Joseph Gangi, and it fills 3 squares running top to bottom from row 19, column 18 of the 21×21 grid.
The clue gives an example and asks for the broader category it belongs to. The entry begins with T and ends with M, and contains 1 vowel and 2 consonants. If you are working from the crossings, two or three confirmed letters from the Across entries should be enough to lock it in. Friday puzzles are the Journal’s contest crosswords with a hidden meta answer, so expect the rest of this grid to be pitched at the same level.
