Words with Wooden Tiles

The first time local construction caused a multi-hour internet outage at our house, then-six-year-old Hailey was reduced to tears. When it happened again last night, now-eight-year-old Hailey had the wisdom to cope with situation with only mild frustration. However, by hour two, she remained unimpressed with her mother's suggestion to "read a book," and even moreso my claim that I had once gone more than 40 *years* without seeing a YouTube video.

We eventually hit up the board game closet for some classic entertainment, to which she said, "Oh, this is like Words with Friends from the olden days. Is this what it was based on?"
