First Friends (0–2 Years)

Soft Companions to Treasure

For babies and toddlers, the perfect introduction to Maileg is soft, comforting and beautifully made. While most Maileg toys are recommended for children aged three years and over, the My First Bunny collection and Plush Bunnies are specially designed to become a child's earliest companion.

Beautiful enough to display in the nursery and soft enough for everyday cuddles, these treasured friends often become keepsakes that are loved long after childhood.

Our Recommendations

  • My First Bunny
  • Plush Bunnies


Ages 3–5

Where Imagination Begins

As children begin creating stories of their own, Maileg becomes much more than a toy.

Tiny mice become family members, rabbits enjoy afternoon tea, and every day brings a brand-new adventure.

Many younger children find the larger miniature furniture easier for little hands to hold and move, making the House of Miniature a wonderful place to begin building their miniature world.

  • Mum Mouse & Dad Mouse
  • Big Brother & Big Sister Mice

Ages 5–8

Growing Their Mouse House

As confidence grows, so does the Mouse House.

Children often begin furnishing every room, collecting favourite characters and creating detailed adventures that continue day after day. Tiny accessories become part of the storytelling, helping every room feel warm, welcoming and full of life.

Many children also enjoy adding portable homes like the SuitCasa, creating cosy little hideaways for Little Brother and Little Sister Mice.

Ages 8+

Creating Their Own Mouse House Village

Every new addition helps create a Mouse House Village that's completely unique to them.

There is no right or wrong place to begin a Maileg collection.

Some children fall in love with a soft bunny they cuddle every night. Others begin with a tiny mouse, a cosy little home and a world full of imagination waiting to be explored.

The beauty of Maileg is that every collection grows differently, with each new friend, piece of furniture and tiny accessory becoming another chapter in a story that's uniquely your own.
