This activity supports important skills which are wonderful for your child's well-being and ability to learn new things:

• Strengthens the ability to show care and compassion.
• Perfect for group role play, where little ones get to practise finding their own place in the game and taking turns to leads.
• Encourages your child to practise social skills, for instance being able to lose, listen, trade toys, or wait their turn, being tolerant and patient, and trying to read the situation.

Measures 11 cm.
Suitable for children aged 3 yrs. to 7 yrs.

Playing dress-up and playing with dolls, play sets, animals, and face paint are all different ways of role playing. Role play is key in your child's development. While role playing, your child learns to think creatively in terms of their own identity. How does a turtle or a ninja talk? And what can I do if I'm a dinosaur or a circus performer? Having such ponderings while playing strengthens children's social skills. Role playing helps children build up their awareness of their own world and daily life. When role playing, your child is able to experiment with boundaries, rules, 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 design durable toys with lots of soul and personality as a counterbalance plastic toys and fast trends. The name Maileg is a mix of the Danish word for ""play"" and the founders' surname. Based in Herning, Denmark, Maileg creates toy figures and accessories full of ""hygge"" and Scandinavian design.

Maileg's elves, mice, and figures are made with immersive, calm play in mind. It's all about creating worlds and immersing yourself in 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 adorable little mice and elves.

Maileg is all about high quality in the details and materials 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 elves, mice, and other figurines are purely decorative. But the Maileg universe is so great at sparking children's imaginations that we're happy to offer even the more delicate decorations to our customers regardless.
