We see the roof of a candy factory, and tilt down to a factory door, with a conveyer belt leading to a delivery truck. A box rests on the conveyer belt. To the side is Jonas, a candy maker.

Jonas works at the candy factory, and today he is loading up the boxes to send to children all over the world. He has to count each piece of candy, then write the number of pieces on the outside of the box. Can you help Jonas count each different kind of candy?
