2016 Easter Egg Hunt

Hey! This is our first Annual Easter Egg Hunt! I'll let you know how this works.
=== How this Works ===
Okay, so there will be shapes like this: 
/\ , (~) , [**]
in a jumble of coded text like this: 
><>*<>*<>~*<>*<>*<>~*<>*<>*<>~*<>*<>*<>~*<>*<>*<>~*<>*<>*<>~*<>*<>*<>~*<>*<>*<>~*<>*<>*<>~*<>*<><>*<>*<>~*<>*<>*<>~*<>*<>*<>~*<>*<>*<>~*<>*<>*<>~*<>*<>*<>~*<>*<>*<>~*<>*<>*<>~*<>*<>*<>~*<>*<><>*<>*<>~*<>*<>*<>~*<>*<>*<>~*<>*<>*<>~*<>*<>*<>~*<>*<>*<>~*<>*<>*<>~*<>*<>*<>~*<>*<>*<>~*<>*<><>*<>*<>~*<>*<>*<
and it is your job as the user to try and figure out how many of each shape there are in the jumble. 
== The Challenge Begins ==
And so, without further ado, let the Easter Egg Hunt begin!!
