We took advantage of the sunshine this weekend and enjoyed the best treat at @happypopsnoosa where the kids were given the chance to decorate their own ice creams.
Of course, they opted for all the lollies, chocolate sauce and sprinkles - but who can blame them! 
There’s so many delicious flavours to choose from, or you can tailor make your own yummy masterpiece.
The perfect treat while enjoying Noosa’s beautiful Main Beach.
What’s your favourite flavour or combo?

Strawberry season is back in action on the Sunshine Coast. 🍓🍓
We visited @mcmartinsfarm in Bli Bli today for the start of their pick-your-own season and we’re happy to report there are plenty of delicious strawberries ripe for picking.
They seriously taste so much sweeter when picked straight from the patch. Yum! 🍓🍓

FYI - This post isn’t sponsored or anything. We just love supporting local businesses. And McMartin’s are one of the last remaining PYO places on the coast, so they deserve the community’s support. Plus, they make delicious strawberry ice cream! 🍦😁

If you’re looking for something fun to do this Easter long weekend, make a beeline for @aussieworldfun 
We recently visited and had the best time on all of the rides, and the kids even got to make slime that they’ve been playing with ever since. 
Our favourite rides are probably the spinning Dingo Racer, Rev Shed Dodgems, Plunge, and the Illusionarium. 
But there’s a great mix of rides (including some for the really crazy adrenaline seekers) and you hardly ever have to line up, so the day is packed full of fun. 
Love it!
What’s your favourite ride?
