Maileg Ballet Dancer Mouse - Big Brother

He soars like a bird over the bookshelves in a powerful jeté, and every little mouse lets out a deep sigh and dreams of being the one he catches in his strong arms.Big Brother Ballet Dancer Mouse is 13 cm tall, and he’ doesn't like to just sit around - he comes with a little stand so he can stand up tall and be admired in all his glory, like the world-class solo performer he is.

The ballet mouse and his stand come in a decorative tube. Other items shown in the pictures can be purchased separately.

Here, important skills are stimulated, which are great for your child's well-being and ability to learn new things:

• Supports the ability to experience empathy and care.
• Perfect for role play, where little ones practise finding their own place in the game and not always being in charge. This benefits your child's empathy and ability to work with others.
• Strengthens social skills, which, according to childcare professionals and elementary school teachers, are more important for children to practise than memorizing letters and historical events.

Measures 13 cm.
Suitable for children aged 3 yrs. to 7 yrs.

Dressing up or playing with doll sets, play sets, and face paint are all ways of engaging in role play. Role play is an important part of your child's development. During role play, your child learns to think creatively when it comes to their own identity. How does a horse or a sword fighter talk? And what can I do if I'm a dinosaur or a doctor? Having these kinds of ponderings while playing develops your child's social skills. Playing with different roles helps children expand their sense of the world around them. When 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 started in 1999 by Dorthe og Erik Mailil, who set out to make toys with soul, personality, and high durability as a counterbalance to fast trends and throw-away culture. The name Maileg is a combination of the founders' surname and the Danish word for play. Based in Herning, Denmark, Maileg designs animal figures, Christmas elves, and accessories full of ""hygge"" and Scandinavian design.

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

Maileg emphasises high quality in the details and materials of their toys. Their designs speak to both children and grown-ups. Not all Maileg products are made to be played with - some of the mice, elves, and other figurines are purely decorative. But the Maileg universe is so great at sparking the imaginations of children and other playful souls that we're happy to offer even the more delicate decorations to our customers regardless.
