FAQs

What ages get the most out of Beevih?

Designed for ages 3 and up.

Especially loved by 3 to 7 year olds, when imagination, storytelling and small-world play really come alive.

Can my child play with Beevih independently?

Yes – at least that’s the idea.

Beevih was designed specifically so children can set up, build and play on their own. The slide-to-connect mechanism is intuitive. The tiles stay put. And because there is no "correct way" to piece the tiles together, no adult intervention or correction is required.

That said, younger children often get more out of Beevih when a parent helps set the scene first and then steps back to let the child explore and add to it. Beevih is the springboard, the play is theirs.

How is Beevih different from othe small-world toys?

Beevih is a picture-construction toy, not a structure-building one. Magnetic tiles or building blocks are typically made for stacking; Beevih is made for designing and laying out worlds.

And unlike other small-world play surfaces
(e.g. pre-printed playmats or felts), Beevih is modular. This means a different landscape every time.

Beevih also pairs beautifully with other open-ended toys. The tiles work as a stable base for blocks, figurines, stickers, and train tracks, etc.

What are the tiles made of, and are they safe?

Beevih tiles are made with food-grade TPU – soft and flexible to the touch, sturdy and durable in play. Not a trace of toxic chemicals or heavy metals. No loose parts. No magnets.

Beevih tiles have been rigorously tested and certified to be in compliance with a full range of international toy standards (small parts, flammability, lead content, heavy metals content, phthalates content, etc).

Please contact me if you would like to view the safety certificates (hello@beevih.com).

How durable are the tiles?

Very. They are designed for rough play.

Beevih tiles are made from food-grade TPU, the same flexible material used in high-end baby products. The material flexes rather than fractures, and there's nothing to crack, corrode, or snap.

The tiles are also fully waterproof. They've been taken to the mud, the beach, the grass, through rain and full sun – the colour doesn't fade, the material doesn't warp. Just rinse off and keep going.

How do I clean and care for the tiles?

Wipe with a damp cloth. For heavier spills, a quick rinse with water.

Avoid abrasive scrubbing, which can wear the printed illustrations over time.

Store away from prolonged direct sunlight or heat.

What is your return policy?
