*Fireworks: We see shadow figures of three children looking into the night sky. A firecracker (which looks like a comet streak) passes by them and we pan up into space, Then the firecracker bounces off of an astronaut, then a satellite, and finally, the moon, who has a very angry look, before it shoots up into the sky, and then explodes into several fireworks.

The boy jumps onto the turtle as it flies around in circles. It then stops in the middle of the screen to reveal the "'''''NICKELODEON'''''" text on the TV screen. This was done by Colossal Pictures. | ||
*Nick Box: On a cream-colored background with objects, we see many objects falling down, and landing in a black rectangle. Then, we see the black rectangle, but on top unfolds an orange rectangle, with "'''''NICKELODEON'''''" in the colors of the objects, and in its familiar font. It makes a box shape, then the "'''''NICKELODEON'''''" text flashes white, and a butterfly flies out of the box. | *Nick Box: On a cream-colored background with objects, we see many objects falling down, and landing in a black rectangle.

*Golf: We see the toe of a golf club, with an orange golf ball with '''''"NICKELODEON'''''" on it. It hits it, and goes through a loop with an orange arrow with "'''''NICKELODEON'''''" on it.

*Submarine: We see a dinosaur standing in the middle of a field, looking around. Suddenly, the ground turns into water, and an orange submarine with "'''''NICKELODEON'''''" on it floats up to the surface, right under the dinosaur's feet. This was done by Charlex. | *Submarine: We see a dinosaur standing in the middle of a field, looking around.

*Teacup: On a black background, we see a very weird looking tea-dispenser with green grass-like hair, big eyes, a tongue holding a teacup, and a tube coming out of its nose into the teacup.

The tea-dispenser slowly spins so that the camera is facing the back of it, and starts to become transparent. When it becomes fully transparent, we see three fish with "'''''NICKELODEON'''''" on them swimming in circles inside. | ||

This then changes to a blue person wearing green clothing falling over on a bike carrying packages, then to another purple person riding a bike, and finally | *Bikes: On a black background, we see two hand-drawn people (one orange and one purple) riding bikes. This then changes to a blue person wearing green clothing falling over on a bike carrying packages, then to another purple person riding a bike, and finally multiple red people passing by on their bikes. During the last shot, an orange person also passes by, with one of his bike's gears reading "'''''NICKELODEON'''''". When this gear shows up on screen, every part of the orange person's bike except the gear disappears, leaving only the gear on screen. | ||
*Clay: On a white background, we see a clay orange bomb reading "'''''NICKELODEON'''''" with a lit fuse. When the bomb detonates, it explodes into an orange drop, which transforms into an orange fish reading "'''''NICKELODEON'''''", and then into an orange triangle, also reading "'''''NICKELODEON'''''". | *Clay: On a white background, we see a clay orange bomb reading "'''''NICKELODEON'''''" with a lit fuse.

The silhouettes clap hands two times, and four orange hands appear on screen. When they clap hands again, they disappear, and "'''''NICKELODEON'''''" appears on the four orange hands. | ||
