Ludothèque de Nendaz - Lud'Oasis
At the Lud'Oasis in Nendaz, play comes in every age bracket: the toy library lends its games to children, teenagers, adults and seniors alike. This intergenerational spirit runs through its programme of activities, with games evenings for teenagers and adults, sessions dedicated to people aged 60 and over, and the "P'tits joueurs" activity, which brings young children together with their parents or grandparents around the table.
Based in Basse-Nendaz, the library welcomes borrowers twice a week: Mondays from 14:00 to 16:00 and Wednesdays from 16:30 to 18:30.
You leave with games under your arm, enjoy them at home, then come back to swap them for new finds.

Ludothèque Ardon
Ardon, 1957
Two weekly slots at the end of the day: that is the rhythm of the Ardon toy library, which lends games and toys to families in the municipality on Mondays from 16:00 to 19:00 and Fridays from 17:00 to 19:00. In July and August, the Monday opening even extends until 20:00. Located on Rue des Grands Vergers, the library also takes part in occasional events, including a games evening organised as part of World Play Day. For parents, the lending principle is hard to beat on the budget front: children regularly discover new games without constant purchases, and everyone can try a title before deciding to buy it for keeps.
Ludothèque de Sion
Sion, 1950
With more than 2,000 games and toys, the Sion toy library ranks among the best stocked in central Valais. At rue du Chanoine-Berchtold 23, the collections cover early years and role-play games, board games, construction and patience games, electronic games, outdoor games, as well as a party and dressing-up section. Opening times are Wednesdays and Fridays from 15:00 to 18:00, two well-placed afternoons for leaving with everything needed to liven up the weekend. Games can be borrowed for three weeks, a rhythm that leaves time to explore a box before returning it. The online catalogue, backed by a Click & Collect service, lets you find and reserve what you want before coming in, handy for targeting a specific age or type of game.
Ludothèque de Riddes Le Totem
Riddes, 1908
The story of Le Totem begins in 1986, when four mothers from Riddes founded the toy library, which opened its doors in the spring of 1987. Nearly forty years on, the place remains true to its original spirit: a friendly space for borrowing games and toys for families in Riddes and the surrounding area. Run by a committee and a team of volunteers, the toy library welcomes the public at rue de Combremont 11, on Monday evenings from 18:00 to 20:00 as well as the first Wednesday of the month from 15:00 to 17:00. Beyond lending, Le Totem regularly puts on activities (craft sessions, board games, storytelling and shows) which punctuate the year and make the toy library a genuine little hub of local life.
