Maileg

Maileg - loving fantasy worlds from Denmark

Maileg was founded in Denmark in 1999 by Dorthe and Erik Mailil. Dorthe, trained as a graphic designer in Copenhagen and Marseille, developed the first "Pixie" figure made of clay during a study project, which later led to the characteristic Maileg mice. The name combines "Mailil" with the Danish word "leg" for play - matching the brand's signature: detailed, nostalgic and Scandinavian light. Find out more about the founder in the inspiring interview with Petit Sourire.

Miniatures that tell stories
Maileg awakens the imagination with detailed play figures and miniature furniture. Mouse families sleep in little boxes, wear tiny clothes and cook in miniature kitchens - all lovingly crafted from fabric or wood. These enchanting sets encourage expressiveness, creative storytelling and fine motor skills. Limited editions make Maileg a collector's treasure that will be passed down through the generations.

Why Maileg and Stadtlandkind go together
Our philosophy at Stadtlandkind is based on sustainability, quality and aesthetic value - Maileg fits these values perfectly. Handmade and durable materials show respect for toys and the environment. Maileg gives children space for their own stories and parents the good feeling of making conscious and long-lasting choices.

Educationally valuable for nursery & school
Maileg sets are ideal for use in educational environments: They support free play, language development and social interaction. In Montessori, Waldorf or project classes, the miniatures inspire imaginative learning scenarios and role-playing encounters - and create an educational, creative atmosphere.
