My kid was playing with it and now i cant unlock my screen

Hi,
your kid should have used the "screen Lock" facility accidentally. If you cannot find the code for unlocking the screen, then try the following steps.

1. connect the I-pod to the primary computer (the first one I-pod synchronized with).
2. Open I- Tunes.
3. Now disconnect the I-pod from the computer. Your device will no longer be locked.

Hello :

Connect your iPod to the primary computer you use it with (the first one iPod synced with), and open iTunes. When you disconnect iPod from the computer, it will no longer be locked.
If you can't unlock iPod using either [the code or connecting it to the computer you use to manage its songs]. . . you can restore your iPod to factory settings using iPod Updater. Please note that this will erase all data on your iPod. Afterwards, you can add your music and data back to your iPod.

good luck .
