Collection: Maileg Christmas
The countdown starts here! Maileg's Christmas collection is where the season comes to life in miniature — mice in ski gear, reindeer parents, a tiny Christmas tree, sleds, tea parties, and the beloved pixies that started it all for Maileg back in the beginning.
These are the pieces that come out of the box each December and get greeted like old friends. Set the mouse tea table, prop open the Christmas door, tuck a baby mouse into a book, and let a whole little holiday unfold on the shelf. Hand-illustrated and beautifully made, they're added to slowly and eventually passed down — the sort of treasures that become part of your family's Christmas story.
The loveliest part is watching it grow. One year it's a single mouse on a sled. The next, there's a reindeer family, a tiny tree, and a pixy hanging off the light fixture. Before long the Christmas box is the one everyone wants to open first.
What's in the Maileg Christmas collection?
Festive mice and characters — including ski mice, maxi Christmas mice, mice in books and car boxes, reindeer parents, and the reindeer in suitcase — alongside a mouse Christmas tree, sleds, a Christmas door set, a Christmas tea party set, winter micro rabbits and bunnies, napkins, ornaments, and the classic Maileg pixies.
What is the Maileg Advent Pixy?
The Advent Pixy is a large pixy with 24 numbered pockets, used as an advent calendar. Families fill the pockets with small treats or treasures and open one each day through December, counting down to Christmas.
What are Maileg pixies?
The pixies are the little characters Maileg first became known for, long before the mice. They come in sizes 1 through 6, so you can gather a whole pixy family.
Why do Maileg pixies have magnets?
The size 1 pixies have magnets in both hands and one foot, so they can hang from shelves, fridge doors, and light fixtures all over the house. Half the fun is finding them somewhere new — perched, dangling, and generally up to mischief.
Are Maileg Christmas pieces collectible?
Wonderfully so. New Christmas designs arrive each year and are retired once the season ends, so families watch for the new releases and treasure the ones they've collected.
Where can I buy Maileg Christmas items in Canada?
Right here at The Playful Peacock. We're a Canadian, mom-run shop with one of the country's most-loved Maileg collections, and we ship across Canada, hand-packed with care.

The Handmade Difference
The Playful Peacock’s toys are built with quality and care to last for generations. All of the toys are safe and made with individualized love and attention using a high-caliber of materials and finishes that do not include any harmful additives. Our toys will quickly become an heirloom through their high-quality and endless enjoyment.

Materials Matter
Plastic toys are typically mass-produced and easily breakable. These toys can contribute to sweatshops, unfair labour conditions and pollution in general.
While wooden toys are a step in the right direction, not all wooden toys are made the same. There are many wooden dupes to be aware of cheap, mass-produced wooden toys that are just as harmful as plastic! For example, softwood and plywood can chip and splinter easily, while non-handcrafted wooden toys often are filled with harmful toxic paints, finishes, and sealants.
Consciously opting for ethical, handcrafted wooden toys (renewable wood is even better) is safer for your child, is way more dependable and a kinder contributor to our already fragile planet.
The manufacturing process our makers use considers Mother Earth first through strict FSC Certifications, non-toxic paint, and planet-friendly materials across every single product. After placing an order, you will receive your newly beloved toy in 99% plastic-free, biodegradable, recyclable and compostable packaging, down to the stickers and tape.

The Right Toy At The Right Time
Children are naturally drawn to play toys that they can master and that is right for their particular stage of development.
With a wide range of toys available for kids ages 0-1, 1-2, 2-3 and 3+, you can ensure the toy is safe, age-appropriate, and developmentally appropriate, too. The majority of our toys focus on fun and subtle learning, and open-ended play, while being Montessori approved.

Ethical Toys Making A Difference
We are a purpose-first brand and a business second.
With a deep awareness that the toy industry must do better, we are committed to our part through advocacy for a range of social justice causes, environmental advancement and stringent criteria for makers. We are changemakers and give back through every purchase by donating meals to children in need across 26 Indigenous communities within Canada.
