Full details
The Maileg Little Brother Mouse in Matchbox is an ideal choice for children who enjoy imaginative play and collectors who appreciate high-quality, whimsical craftsmanship. This charming set provides a complete bedtime scenario for storytelling, featuring a poseable mouse with magnetic hands and a cozy, miniature sleeping environment. While it is perfect for fostering creativity, the small size and accessory pieces make it unsuitable for very young children who are still prone to putting small objects in their mouths.

FAQs
What are the dimensions of the Little Brother Mouse?
The mouse measures 11 cm in height.
Is the mouse machine washable?
No, it is recommended to spot-clean only to preserve the fabric and internal magnetic components.
Can I remove the mouse's pajamas?
The clothing is designed to be part of the character's aesthetic, though it may be removable depending on the specific construction; however, we recommend keeping them on to avoid losing small items.
Is this toy safe for toddlers?
Due to the size of the mouse and the inclusion of small accessories, it is generally recommended for children ages 3 and up.
Does the set include anything other than the mouse and bed?
The set includes the mouse, the matchbox, a pillow, and a blanket.
Troubleshooting
Magnetic hands not sticking to metal surfaces
Ensure the surface is ferromagnetic and that there is no thick fabric or debris between the hands and the surface.
Matchbox lid is stiff or difficult to slide
Gently check for any paper burrs or misalignments. Ensure the mouse is positioned flat in the box so it does not obstruct the sliding movement.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setting up the mouse is simple: slide the matchbox open, fluff the pillow, and place the mouse inside. The mouse is compatible with other items in the Maileg Mouse series, meaning clothing and accessories from similar-sized Maileg characters can often be interchanged. To maintain the quality of the product, avoid getting the fabric clothing or the paper-based matchbox wet. If dust accumulates, use a dry, soft brush or a light, damp cloth to spot-clean the mouse's surface gently. Always store the set in a cool, dry place to prevent the cardboard box from bending or warping.
