Why Fall is the Perfect Time for a Toy Shelf Refresh
As the crisp air of fall settles in and families spend more time indoors, playtime naturally takes center stage. Just like we rotate our wardrobes for the season, fall is the ideal moment to refresh your toy shelf; bringing in new favorites, letting go of what no longer serves, and keeping play joyful and clutter-free.
At LudoLudo, our toy library makes this refresh simple and sustainable. Through toy rotation, buy-backs, and high-quality wooden and Waldorf/Montessori-inspired toys, families can create variety at home while reducing waste.
A Look Back at September
Last month, we had the chance to participate in an event at the Canadian Centre for Architecture (CCA). Meeting families, sharing the story behind LudoLudo, and seeing the excitement for circular play was inspiring. Thank you to everyone who joined us: your energy is what fuels our mission to build a brighter, less wasteful world for children.
New Toys in the Library
Our collection is growing just in time for cozy fall play. A few highlights recently added to the LudoLudo toy library:
Jakomo Animals: develops focus and fine motor skills.
Softi Farm: sparks open-ended creativity.
Boat and Fish Stacker — a timeless favorite for storytelling and imagination.

Rotating toys every couple of months keeps play engaging for little ones and helps reduce the clutter of shelves filled with forgotten toys.
Growing Together: New Partnerships
We’re thrilled to announce two new partnerships this season. These collaborations allow us to expand the library with even more sustainable toy options and bring circular play to more families in Montréal. Stay tuned for deeper spotlights on each partner in the weeks ahead.
Our Fall Toy Buy-Back Program
This October, we’re inviting families to participate in our toy buy-back program. Here’s how it works:

Play It Forward
Fall is the season of cozy evenings, indoor creativity, and new routines. By refreshing your toy shelf now, you can create an environment where play feels exciting again, all while keeping toys in circulation instead of in storage or landfill.
At LudoLudo, we believe in circular play: toys that are loved, shared, and passed forward.
