Sisters Paula Baxter and Kara Higgins grew up attending the Milton Show with their parents and brothers.

Now, both are mothers and haven't missed a show since their children were babies. 

"The show has always been a big part of our lives. It’s like Christmas," Mrs Higgins said.

Mrs Higgins remembered pinching flowers from their yard or their neighbour's garden, baking cupcakes and helping their father prepare and show his chickens.

"My Dad always had horses and was always doing lots of sporting things. My Mum is a really good cook, she’s always been putting things in the pavilion. As kids we were brought up putting in lots of entries."

Now she's a mentor, helping her daughter Emily prepare her horse and encouraging her sons Tyler and Clayton to enter the pavilion at the 150th Milton Show.

"There’s a junior master stockman, like an ambassador, it's a bit of fun really for the boys," she said.

"My daughter is in the junior showgirl this year and she will take her horse over to ride."

Preparation is paramount. Naming exhibits, getting the horse ready, fit and clean, organising ingredients and finding artwork children had created throughout the year were activities the families could bond over together.

While winners get prize money and glory, seeing their work on display can give entrants, especially children, a sense of pride. 

"For the kids, they put the work into something and they can see the result of that."

The 150^th Milton Show will be held at Milton Showground on March 1 and 2.
