The only Maileg size guide you'll ever need!
The most comprehensive guide to Maileg sizes you'll find on the web. Our guide helps you to choose the right furniture for your Maileg mouse house, pick the perfect bed, compare the different fridge options and find out which clothes fit each Maileg mouse.
Maileg Mouse Sizes
Maileg mice come in four different sizes: Mum & Dad size (which also includes Grandparents); Big Brother & Sister size; Little Brother and Sister size and Baby mice.
Mums, Dads and Grandparents are 15cm tall
Big Brothers and Sisters are 12cm tall
Little Brothers and Sisters are 10cm tall
Baby mice are 8cm tall
Historically, Maileg have always called their Brother and Sister mice 'Micro' size and their baby mice 'My' size. Although this terminology is gradually being phased out.
Maileg Bunny and Rabbit Sizes
Maileg Bunnies and Rabbits also come in different sizes: from the smallest My and Micro sizes right up to the largest size 5.
Maileg Rabbits are always taller than their Bunny counterparts because their ears are upright, whereas Maileg Bunnies have long, floppy ears.
Micro Rabbits & Bunnies are similar in size to Big Brother and Sister mice and can share clothes and furniture with them. My Rabbits are similar in size to baby mice and can use the same furniture.
There are bunnies and rabbits in size 'micro' and sizes 1 through to 5. However, in size 'My' there are only rabbits. There is no such thing as a My bunny.
Maileg Mice compared to Bunnies & Rabbits
Here are the My and Micro size bunnies and rabbits alongside Maileg mice. Being a similar size, they make perfect playmates for each other and can often share clothes and furniture.
Maileg Teddy Sizes
Maileg's Teddy family includes Mum, Dad, Junior and Baby Teddy.
Teddy Dad is 25cm tall
Teddy Mum is 22cm tall
Teddy Junior is 21cm tall
Baby Teddy is 12.5cm tall
Maileg SuitCasa
We're excited to see the new SuitCasa house arriving in Autumn Winter 2025. This fabulous house is actually a dolls house in a suitcase . Inside you'll find four rooms: a bedroom with cosy bedding for two mice, and three other rooms which you can set up as a kitchen, bathroom and living room. Maileg have created some new pieces that are specifically designed to fit the SuitCasa, such as a new compact toilet, sink and kitchen counter.
Maileg Furniture
Until quite recently, Maileg furniture was categorised into the sizes 'My' and 'Micro'. However, in 2023, Maileg began to make their sizing simpler by labelling furniture as 'Mouse' or 'Baby' size. Any furniture released from 2023 onwards will be labelled as 'mouse' or 'baby', whereas older pieces are labelled as 'my' and 'micro'.
Thankfully this will make sizing easier to understand. But as the pre 2023 furniture and accessories are still available to buy, it's worth knowing that 'My' size furniture fits the baby mice and My Rabbits and 'micro' sized furniture fits Brother and Sister mice (Big and Little) and sometimes (but not always) Mum and Dad sized mice.
There is also another size of furniture called 'Mini 'which is suitable for Teddies, Chatons and size 1 & 2 bunnies. Mini size furniture is much larger than My and Micro furniture and is suitable for large dolls houses such Maileg's House of Miniature. It won't fit into 1:12 scale dolls houses such as the Ikea Flisat house, Maileg castles or the Mouse Hole Farmhouse.
In most cases, micro and my sized furniture will fit a 1:12 scale doll's house. It will also fit the Ikea Flisat doll's house, Maileg Castle and Hall, as well as the Mouse Hole Farmhouse.

Maileg Accessories
Maileg accessories such as food and kitchen implements tend to be a slightly larger scale than Maileg furniture. You can see in the picture that the carton of milk is out of proportion to the fridge and the cooking pot is nearly as big as the oven! This is because Maileg accessories are designed to be safe, robust and easy for little hands to use.
Maileg Fridge/Cooler Sizes
A Maileg fridge or cooler is an essential for mouse's kitchen. But as there are five models to choose from, it can be tricky to pick the correct one. Take a look at our comprehensive guide to Maileg fridges with dimensions and colour options.

Which Maileg Mice can wear which clothes?
Maileg clothes labelled for 'Mum & Dad' - all the Mum and Dad mice can wear these, including Mum and Dad in a cigar box, Kings, Queens, Beach Dads and the Wildlife Guide mouse. Grandparents (who are the same size as mums and dads) can wear these clothes too.
Maileg clothes labelled for 'Big Brother & Sister' - obviously all the Big Brother and Sister mice can wear these, such as Princes, Princesses, Tricycle mice, Wellness mice and Big Brothers and Sisters in a matchbox. Micro Rabbits and Bunnies can also wear these clothes, and even Teddy Baby!
Maileg clothes labelled for 'Little Brother & Sister' - only the Little Brother and Sister mice can wear these. This includes Tooth Fairies, Super hero mouse, the mice from the dance studio and cowboy mouse and all the other little brother and sister mice. These clothes are too small for any of the other Maileg friends.
