SEA WORLD:
After completing most of the the Sea world, try coaxing the eel out of his cave. He has a star attached to his tail.
SNOW WORLD:
When racing in the snow world, leap off the slide as soon as you start. if you can catch one of the lower slides, you will finish the slide ride ahead of the time limit. Also, look for a hidden area near the walls of this area.

The height of your jump into the picture will determine the water level. For example, If you jump high, the water level is high.
Carry Mario's hat in his hands:
Go to Snowman's Land (the second snow world) and allow the big snowman to blow Mario's hat off. Enter the warp that is under a tree, and go back and forth through the warps about three to five times. Return to where the hat was blown off and pick it up. Mario will now be holding it in his hands.

Extra stars:
Besides the six stars in each course there is an additional a seventh star obtained when 100 coins are collected. There are also stars in the castle. Toad gives Mario a few, as well as the running rabbit in the basement.
Flying cap:
Get this get nine stars and defeat the first koopa level. A light will appear from the ceiling in the main area in the castle after the koopa level. Look directly at the light to reach the flying cap level. Fly straight down to the platform and land. Step on the red button.
Invisibility hat:
Run through the hall that is flooded and has an unmarked door. Enter the door and find the location where there are two pillars in the water. Super butt slam on both of them. After the water drains, follow the arrows that leads to another room. Go through the door, then find the square hole in the ground. Enter the hole and complete the rest of the level to find the hat.

Mario wearing sunglasses:
At the screen where Mario's face can be altered, press B, then hold R and pull Mario's cheeks up as far as possible and keep them that way. Mario will look like he is wearing sunglasses.

Super jump to where the huge boulders are located. Reach the top of where the boulders are dropping from. Go through the door and step on the elevator. When the elevator stops, follow the path to the under ground sea. Find the sea dragon and get on his back. Execute a super butt stomp on his back, then get on his head. Lead him to the part of land that contains the red outlined blocks and jump on them. Then, go through the door and run to the other stream. Try not to fall in the water. Jump from land to land until reaching the green switch. Stomp on the switch to get the steel cap.
Stop the clock level:
To stop the clock level on the third floor of the castle, jump in at exactly 12 o'clock
Shortcut in final Bowser level:
Climb up the "Lego" platform, to reach to a part that levels out just a bit. Get as close as possible to the part that continues to climb, then turn around and perform a long jump in the opposite direction. Mario will land on the checkered platform right before the moving platform with the arrow on it. Using this will allow you to avoid the time and the danger of the flameblowers along the way of the "Lego" path.
Spiral stairs shortcut:
Walk into the castle, walk up the stairs to the door with the key hole, then go inside. You will see a column to the left, just before the staircase starts to spiral. Walk along the wall to your left until reaching the corner where the wall and the column meet. Perform a double jump while still moving in that direction. This should allow Mario to jump through the ceiling and bring him right to the top of the stairs. Although this is not a very large shortcut, it will save a few seconds and some dizziness.
Unlimited cap usage:
Go to the third Bowser level. Collect seven red coins. Restart, then do the same thing on the second Bowser level, then the first Bowser level. After that, get all eight red coins, get the star, and repeat the process going from Bowser 3 to 1.
