Walkthrough

Section 1: The Breezy Beginning
  1. Start by heading right. You'll immediately encounter a rotating platform. Wait for it to align, then jump across.
  2. Just after the first platform, you'll see a small gap. Drop down carefully to find a hidden alcove containing 50 Beads and your first Stamp Patch (1/20). Climb back up using the yarn blocks.
  3. Continue right, past a few Shy Guys. You'll come to a larger rotating platform with a visible Smiley Flower (1/5) in the center. Time your jump to land on the platform, grab the flower, and then jump to the next stable ground.
  4. Before moving on, look above the rotating platform you just crossed. Use a yarn toss to hit the cloud, revealing a hidden Wonder Wool (1/5).
  5. Proceed to the right. You'll encounter a series of platforms with gusts of wind pushing you. Use short, controlled jumps and try to land quickly. Collect the Stamp Patches (2-4/20) scattered along this path.
Section 2: Windmill Wonders
  1. You'll reach a large windmill structure. The blades are rotating platforms. Carefully jump onto the first blade.
  2. As you ride the blade upwards, look for a small platform to your left. Jump off to reach it, and you'll find a hidden area with 100 Beads and a Smiley Flower (2/5).
  3. Jump back onto the windmill blades and continue ascending. At the very top, you'll see a cloud. Hit it with a yarn ball to reveal a Wonder Wool (2/5).
  4. Drop down to the right side of the windmill. You'll land near a Piranha Plant. Defeat it or avoid it.
  5. Just past the Piranha Plant, you'll find a series of small, bouncy platforms. Use these to bounce up and collect the Stamp Patches (5-7/20) floating above.
  6. At the end of this bouncy section, you'll see a visible Smiley Flower (3/5) on a high platform. Use a well-timed bounce to reach it.
Section 3: Hidden Paths and Gusty Gaps
  1. After the bouncy platforms, you'll come to a section with strong horizontal winds. Wait for the wind to die down slightly before making your jumps.
  2. Mid-way through this windy section, look for a hidden path above. Flutter jump to reach a secret area containing a Wonder Wool (3/5) and 50 Beads.
  3. Continue right, navigating the windy gaps. You'll encounter a couple of Winged Clouds. Hit them to reveal Stamp Patches (8-10/20).
  4. You'll then reach a checkpoint flag. hit it!
  5. Immediately after the checkpoint, you'll see a large, rotating gear-like platform. Ride it up.
  6. At the peak of its rotation, jump off to the left onto a small ledge. Here you'll find a hidden pipe. Enter it.
  7. Inside the pipe, you'll be in a bonus room. Collect all the beads and the Smiley Flower (4/5) before exiting.
Section 4: The Final Ascent
  1. Exiting the pipe will put you back near the large gear platform. Continue right.
  2. You'll encounter more rotating platforms, some moving vertically, others horizontally. Take your time and observe their patterns.
  3. Above a set of vertically moving platforms, you'll spot a cloud. Hit it with a yarn ball to reveal the final Wonder Wool (4/5).
  4. Further right, you'll see a series of platforms with enemies. Clear them out or carefully navigate past them.
  5. Look for a cluster of yarn blocks on the ceiling. Use your tongue to pull them down, revealing a hidden passage above. Flutter jump into it to find a secret area with Stamp Patches (11-15/20) and a large amount of beads.
  6. Drop back down and continue right. You'll reach a section with several rotating platforms leading upwards.
  7. As you ascend, keep an eye on the left side. There's a small, hard-to-spot platform with the final Smiley Flower (5/5). You might need to make a daring jump or use a flutter jump from a higher platform.
  8. Near the top of this ascent, you'll find the last Wonder Wool (5/5) floating openly.
  9. Finally, you'll see the goal post. Before jumping to it, make sure you've collected all the remaining Stamp Patches (16-20/20) which are usually scattered around the final approach.
  10. Jump onto the goal post to complete the level!
