Waltes is a uniquely Mi’kmaq game played with dice made traditionally from bone, wooden sticks, and a carved wooden bowl. It is a game of chance and strategy, with origins rooted in culture and storytelling.
Join Aaron at the Neighbourhood Shop to learn how to play the game of Waltes with neighbours, friends, or family.
Aaron is from Eskasoni First Nation in Cape Breton.
The Waltes board illustration above is from our Spring 2022 program cover illustration by Shannon Long.
