  • Nice Noodles

    After reading the reviews by Mom’s members of Maggi Two Minute Noodles; I decided to try the product and put it to the taste test! A quick snack was needed before a big job and we cooked Maggie Two Minute Noodles. The noodles were quick and easy to cook and tasty too. Happy with the quality and taste of these noodles and will buy them again.

  • HIdden wholegrains in every bite

    My kids love two minute noodles as snacks, and the smaller ones for lunches, but I always feel guilty letting them fill up on them, but with the added benefit of added wholegrains I am now much happier.
    The kids love the flavours, even the tomato, from time to time we will add some extra frozen vegetables through them to make them a little more filling

  • Yum yum

    My grand kids do love the chicken, not the beef, but I am reluctant to give it to them very often as it is very salty. Probably why my grand kids love it – they likes anything salty. But for a quick snack it is easy to prepare.
    I like to put veggies in it as well taste great

  • Loved by All!

    Maggi 2 Minute Noodles has always been one of my all time favourite snacks from when I was my children’s age. And it is something which my children enjoy to eat as well.

    The new Maggi 2 Minute Noodles with wholegrain in both chicken and tomato flavours were really loved by my whole family.

    It is just as fast and as simple to make as always, with the same delicious taste but with the added benefits of wholegrain.

    I made Singapore Noodles for dinner from the recipe on the Maggi website and my husband truly loved it. And it was so fast and easy to make as well which is always a bonus.

    I definitely recommend these products and will continue to purchase them in the future.

  • Kiddies Love It!

    My husband loves the tomato one and my favourite is the chicken, it tastes good, quick and easy and great for whipping up something in a flash! Normally my husband can’t have much tomato cause of the acid, makes his tummy ache but this doesn’t and the fact that it is whole grain is a bonus. More healthy for our tummies and the kiddies love it!

  • Just like the original

    Tried the Maggi 2 minute noodles with wholegrain and i have to say my daughter and i loved them. After not having the original Maggi 2 minute noodles for some time because we have been trying to eat only wholegrain foods this was a pleasant surprise to find the same great taste and texture but i don’t have to worry about it being unhealthy for my child. Well done Maggi for bringing out a new product with the same great taste that keeps mums happy everywhere.

  • Can't taste the difference

    I have been eating the original maggi 2 minute noodles for over 20 years and when I tried a packet of noodles with added wholegrain I couldn’t taste the difference.
    They taste the same to me but knowing that they have wholegrain in them now makes them a healthier choice than other brands of noodles.

  • 2 Minute noodles, with wholegrain

    I bought the Maggi Two minute noodles with wholegrain as something different, we went with chicken as my children think that is the only flavour that is available, they were not a lot different to normal two minute noodles, preparation was the same and flavour no real difference, I could taste a slight difference, to me it seemed nutty, but no one else made any comment, so they appeared to be a hit, they are a great snack for after school and weekends, with the added wholegrain they must be beneficial, so I will continue to purchase these as additional fibre cannot be understated and if no one notices then that is a bonus.

  • Kids didn't notice any difference

    I was pretty confident that the kids wouldn’t notice the difference with the wholegrain noodles, since they eat various brands of instant noodles. I was right – they ate them up as usual. Good to know they are slightly healthier than the usual version. Sometimes when the kids need a light meal or snack we have them with a bit of salad and tuna or cheese. Personally I don’t think they taste great, but I didn’t think they tasted any better or worse than other instant noodles I’ve tried. We’ve had the chicken flavour but haven’t tried the tomato flavour.

  • finally something they eat

    I have tried my 7 year old on 2 minute noodles before,but she has never been too fond of them. I tried these new ones recently and she actually loves them. They are a lot better then normal 2 minute noodles, and just as easy to make them as there is no difference. I am happy there is finally a quick meal that can make after school when she is hungry

Summer beach and pool days are core childhood memory creators, but getting the kids out the door, not so much! From wrestling wriggly toddlers into rashies to arguing with teens trying to dodge sunscreen and cramming half the house into the car, the exhaustion can kick in before we’ve even set foot on the sand!

But there are some very clever tips that will make even the most stressful summer days smooth sailing – and the Mouths of Mums community know them all! Which is why we asked our mums for their hints, hacks and tips – from sand removal to stress-free sunscreen application (we’re going to introduce you to the fabulous new Banana Boat SmartMist Sunscreen Sprays that will make your life so much easier). 

You’ll want to take note before you next hit the beach or pool!

Pack Smart, Not Big

Do you feel like you take waaayyy too much when you head to the beach or pool, and then you seem to forget a couple of key things that would have made life so much easier?

Our Mouths of Mums community swear by this fab list of essentials which should be in every mum’s beach kit, and

  • A plastic bag for wet towels and bathers
  • A dry bag for clothes
  • A bucket or basin to wash off sandy toys
  • A ‘clean zone’, sand-free blanket or mat for eating and changing
  • A pop-up tent for changing
  • Waterproof phone case
  • Talcum powder to get sticky, wet sand off little feet. Just pop it on and brush it off – it’s magic!
  • A hand-held car vac for quick sand cleanups!

“The amount of times my kids have gone home in wet chafing swimming costumes because they didn’t want anyone to see them changing is unbelievable! Our pop up tent has been life changing! We all drive home comfy and cosy! Lastly, a sand proof picnic blanket is so perfect for a sand reprieve! The sand literally falls right through them!” – MoM Member

Get Safety Sorted Before The Fun Starts

It’s pretty hard to get the kids’ attention once you’re at the beach or pool, so the safety talk should really start at home. Our mums recommend chatting to the kids about:

  • Swimming between the flags at the beach
  • Setting a meeting spot in case anyone gets separated
  • Sunscreen: Always apply sunscreen 20 minutes before heading outdoors. And set alarms to reapply every two hours throughout the day. Reapply immediately after swimming or using a towel. 

Applying sunscreen at the start of the day and regularly throughout is so important, but it usually causes the most arguments. Kids don’t want to stop, teens assure you they ‘did it already’.

That’s where Banana Boat’s new SmartMist™ Sunscreen Spray SPF50+ actually makes a difference. The iconic sunscreen brand has just launched its newest product, which turns sunscreen time into something simple and fun. It’s an easy and convenient way to tick off sun safety – which isn’t always easy when it comes to kids!

Why Banana Boat SmartMist Sunscreen Spray makes sunscreen easier

  • The Smart Control Spray gives you the choice of a short spray for tricky spots or a long spray for larger areas like those wiggly little legs, making application simple and convenient. It also sprays from any angle – just spray, rub in and you’re ready for playtime.
  • Clear, lightweight formula that absorbs fast and with no greasy feel.
  • SPF50+ broad spectrum UVA and UVB protection and 4-hour water resistant.
  • Kids SmartMist™ is mild and gentle for kid’s sensitive skin, fragrance free and contains Aloe and Vitamin E.
  • Sport SmartMist™ features high-performance Powerstay Technology™, designed to stay on through sweat and water.

Banana Boat SmartMist makes those important sunscreen stops much easier and effective and is perfect for active Aussie families this summer.

Prep & Time It Perfectly

There’s nothing worse than kids itching to get to the beach while you’re trying to remember everything you need to pack – it makes everyone frazzled. So get prepped early – even the night before. And time your departure to minimise the amount of time in the car (and the amount of times the kids ask ‘are we there yet?!’.

“Packing the car the night before, always a huge help getting the bucket, cabana, and bag of spare clothes/towels in the boot. We usually leave straight after breakfast to avoid heavy traffic as the beach is an hour away.” – MoM Member

Pack Smart Snacks

Snacks are a must, but it can be tricky to know what’s going to survive a hot, Aussie summer day – and what’s good for hungry tummies. Here’s what our mums recommend:

  • Chopped fruit
  • Crackers
  • Boiled eggs
  • Drink bottles that have been frozen overnight

“We have a few allergies/intolerances, so being prepared with food is helpful and saves us the search and some money. I pre-chop carrots, cucumber, apples, boiled egg, in a handy separating container, a packet of chips, dip, and bring water bottles. If it’s a longer day planned at the beach I’ll bring lunch too.” – MoM Member

A chaos-free beach day. Yes please!

You don’t need a military-style plan to enjoy a sunny day out. A beach trolley, some prep, and an easy sunscreen like SmartMist™ are enough to help things run calmly – or at least calm-ish!

New Banana Boat Sport SmartMist™ Sunscreen Spray SPF50+ 200ml and Banana Boat Kids SmartMist™ Sunscreen Spray SPF50+ 200ml (RRP $28.00) are available now at leading pharmacies, supermarkets and online retailers nationwide. 


Always read the label and follow the directions for use. Wear protective clothing, a hat and sunglasses in addition to sunscreen. Reapply frequently every 2 hours or more often when sweating and immediately after swimming or using a towel. Avoid prolonged high-risk sun exposure.
