World 2-4: Beware the Boo Brigade
Flower 1: The first flower is in a hidden ‘?’ cloud under the first platform.
Red Coin 1: This can be found in the line of coins to the right of the platform.
Red Coin 2: The second red coin is on the second platform at the bottom of the stairs.
Red Coin 3: Shoot an egg into the ‘?’ cloud to the right of the third platform to prompt the appearance of some gold coins and 1 red coin.
Flower 2: Head past the second Big Boo and into the right corner below the spike trap. Jump into the air to reveal a hidden ‘?’ cloud containing a flower.
Red Coin 4: The hidden ‘?’ cloud above will also produce some gold coins and a red coin.
Star 1 – 5: After smashing through the floor beneath the spike trap, you need to hotfoot it past the Dangling Ghosts and up to the platform above to stop the Shy Guy who’s trying to half inch the pink door to the secret area. Before you go through the door, carry on up to the top of this area and to the top left corner (on the opposite side to the blue door) and jump into the air for a hidden ‘?’ cloud and 5 stars.

Flower 3: Stay on the second set of smiley blocks and as it passes through the upper left area of its rotation, jump off and grab the flower in the corner.
Red Coin 7 and 8: Stand on the centre blue block of the second set of smiley blocks and jump into the air to make the hidden ‘?’ cloud appear. Fire and egg into it for more coins.
Star 11 – 15: Between the second and third set of smiley blocks is another star cloud.
Flower 4: Exit via the pink door and lob an egg into the ‘?’ cloud above the Message Block for another flower.
Red Coin 9: This is on the platform above the Message Block.
Red Coin 10: Use the Arrow Lift to reach the second platform and pick up the next red coin on the way.

Red Coin 14: Drop down and pick up the coins beneath the small platform for the next red coin.
Red Coin 15: Go left on the lower platform and the next ‘?’ cloud will also give up some gold coins and a red one.
Star 16 – 25: Exit this area and return to the Arrow Lifts. Hop through the Middle Ring for 10 stars.
Red Coin 16 – 19: Ride the Arrow Lift up within spitting distance of the ‘?’ cloud to the top left and hurl an egg into it to make a row of coins appear. There are 4 red coins amongst them.
Red Coin 20: The next row of gold coins above is where you’ll find the last red coin of the level.
Star 26 – 30: Before you ground pound the giant log. Hop to the top and jump into the air above it for a hidden ‘?’ cloud full of stars.
