Hi - sorry but this is a very old camera - nice in its day (I had one) but now so out of date.
Any camera which extends the lens is prone to disaster if the lens is knocked when extended - you don't need a grandson to do that either. Any slight fall will knock the lens out of alignment - each sections runs in a very fine twisting in/out circular track as they move - a knock will move all or part out of its track. Sometime you can be lucky and press (straighten) the lens so that its back in alignment - mostly not tho.
Given its age, and the vastly improved cameras out there now at far cheaper prices that we paid 12-15 years ago, suggest you remove the memory card and battery, and give him the camera to play with!. Go get yourself a replacement - if you want a camera which does not extend the lens, that will sit flat in your pocket/purse, even when on, consider the likes (or similar) of the Sony Cybershot DSC-TX55. - great camera - (more like a powder compact as the lens does not extend.)
I have one can so can recommend. Other brands have similar 'flat' cameras also. Save more dollars - find a nice secondhand one on ebay or similar. To use, all you do is sllde the front plate down and you are off.
Cheers - have fun taking pics of that g/son.

My camera won't turn on. I've tried to charge the battery but th
I've had this happen to me in the past. It generally means that your charger has died, or your battery's connections need to be cleaned.
Try using a Q-tip and some Windex to clean the contacts on the battery. Let it charge overnight.
If that doesn't work, and you're still under warranty, contact Casio. They replaced a charger I had a few years back, no hassle. They know it's an issue, and are pretty quick about replacing the defective one.
If you're not under warranty, a Casio battery charger can be found on eBay for a few dollars.
