Maileg Baby Mouse in Matchbox - Rose

The activity is great for your child's well-being and ability to learn:

• Wonderful for enhancing your child's sense of empathy.
• In role play, your child creates their own universe or imitates us adults.
• Strengthens social skills, which, according to childcare professionals and elementary school teachers, are more important for students to practise than memorizing letters and historical events.

Measures 10 cm.
Suitable for ages 3 yrs. to 7 yrs.

Role play with play sets, dolls, or dress-up costumes improves your child's ability to think creatively about their own identity. How does a unicorn or a sword fighter talk? And what can I do if I'm a dragon or a gardener? Having these kinds of reflections while playing helps to develop your child's social skills. Imitating activities helps children build up their sense of their own world and daily life. Through role playing, your child gets the chance to test rules, boundaries, and opportunities for identity formation and social interaction.

Do you know Maileg?

Maileg was created in 1999 by Dorthe og Erik Mailil, who set out to make toys with soul, personality, and high durability as a counterbalance plastic toys and fast trends. The name Maileg is a combination of the Danish word for ""play"" and the founders' surname. Based in Herning, Denmark, Maileg makes toy figures and accessories full of nostalgia and Nordic simplicity.

Maileg's dollhouses, mice, and elves are made with immersive, calm play in mind. It's all about building worlds and telling stories with toys whose quality and appearance will last for many years. Your child gets to form a close, heartfelt bond with their toys and the charming little mice and elves.

Maileg is all about high quality in the materials and details of their toys. Their designs speak to both young and old playful souls. Not all Maileg products are meant to be played with - some of the mice, elves, and other figurines are purely decorative. But the Maileg universe is so great at sparking kids' imaginations that we're happy to offer even the more delicate, display-only pieces to our customers regardless.
