The brand

mideer was founded in 2016 with a simple belief: a toy is worth what it brings into a child's world, not just what it is.

Art and education in the same box

mideer designs toys with illustrators, designers and early-years educators working side by side. The aim is products that build real skills, such as concentration, fine motor control and problem-solving, while looking good enough to leave out on the table.

The brand works with artists from Europe, Asia and the Americas, and holds licences such as Eric Carle's The Very Hungry Caterpillar. Each range has its own illustrated world, so a puzzle, a craft kit and a backpack can still feel like part of the same family.

Today mideer is sold in more than 70 countries and regions, through specialist toy shops, bookstores, department stores and online.

Discover. Fun. Art.

The brand's three words, and what they mean on the shelf.

Discover

Toys that open a door to something new: how the planets stack, what lives in the ocean, how a kaleidoscope turns light into pattern.

Fun

Happiness comes first. If a child isn't enjoying it, they aren't learning from it, so every product has to be played with, not just used.

Art

Children should grow up around beautiful things. Illustration, colour and design are treated as part of the learning, not decoration.
