Ludothèque St.Imier
Trying a game before buying it, rotating puzzles without cluttering the flat, finding a toy suited to every age: that is the whole point of the Saint-Imier toy library, which offers more than 1,400 board games, puzzles, small computers and toys.
The collection is aimed at visitors of all ages: everyone will find something to fill a late afternoon or liven up a family evening. The principle is that of lending: you borrow, play, return, and leave with a new discovery.
The toy library is listed among the cultural institutions of the municipality of Saint-Imier, in the Bernese Jura; practical information is available on the municipality's website.

Ludothèque des Franches-Montagnes - Les Breuleux
Les Breuleux, 2345
In Les Breuleux, in the Franches-Montagnes, this branch of the regional toy library lends games and toys to families from the village and the surrounding area. It works like a library for games: borrow, play as much as you like, then bring it back and choose something else. For families on the high plateau it is a valuable resource: children grow up fast, and so do their tastes, the toy library lets you keep pace without constantly buying anew. It is also a welcome source of ideas for afternoons spent indoors. Practical information (opening hours, prices and lending conditions) is available from the municipality of Les Breuleux, which relays the toy library's documentation.
