FAQs

What is the recommended age for this toy?

This toy is recommended for children aged 3 and up due to small magnets and small parts.

Are the clothes removable?

The pyjamas are designed to be part of the character, though they can typically be gently removed if desired.

Can the matchbox be washed?

No, the matchbox is made of high-quality cardboard and should be kept away from water.

Is this mouse compatible with other Maileg sizes?

Yes, it is compatible with other items in the Maileg Mice series, specifically those designed for Big Sister/Brother sizing.

Are the magnets safe?

The magnets are securely sewn inside the hands, but they should not be exposed to high heat or aggressive pulling.

What are the dimensions of the matchbox?

The matchbox is designed to be the perfect size for the Big Sister Mouse, typically measuring approximately 13cm to 15cm in length.

Troubleshooting

Magnetic hands not holding items securely

Ensure the accessory being held contains a metallic component and that the mouse's palms are pressed firmly against the item.

Matchbox lid is becoming loose or bent

Reinforce the corners of the matchbox with acid-free clear tape if the cardboard edges show signs of wear from frequent opening.

Fabric surface shows minor dust or debris

Gently use a soft-bristled brush or a lint roller to remove surface dust without saturating the fabric.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup is simple: once removed from its protective packaging, the Big Sister Mouse is ready for immediate play. The matchbox acts as both a storage unit and a play prop, requiring no additional assembly. This mouse is compatible with the entire Maileg Mice collection, allowing for expanded play sets and room configurations. To maintain the toy, it is recommended to spot clean the fabric with a mild soap and a damp cloth; avoid submerging the doll in water or putting it through a washing machine, as the internal stuffing and magnetic components may be damaged. Ensure the matchbox is kept in a dry area to maintain the structural integrity of the cardboard.
