'ctrl + Scrolling' zooms webpages in/out in most browsers. Give that a shot.
What browser/OS are you using?

When my nephew was around that age he'd always sneak into my room and just randomly push buttons on the keyboard, he seemed to have a preference for the volume mute button though.

For what it's worth, CTRL 0 will reset the zoom in Firefox.

Which was pretty much what my nephew was doing. He kept it up for a few months actually, i'd walk in and find him standing at the table (it's quite a tall table) sometimes with his hand on the mouse moving it around. He was just copying me because he'd see me on the computer the whole time, and the worst thing he ever did was open up about 50 browser windows (I had a Microsoft keyboard with 5 favourite buttons, he held one down ...)
You can't get mad when they do it, because the curiosity is just so damn cute.
