But I don't have a small screwdriver!

The preschooler locked my bedroom door. Then closed it. While she was standing in the hall. I found out when I went to hide some Easter stuff in my closet. And couldn't turn the handle. Because it was locked!!!

I've never had to open up one of those types of doorknobs before. It's got a small hole on the outside knob, but when I looked up online how to get it open all anything says is to insert a small screwdriver. I don't have a screwdriver that small! The only thing I have that will fit into it is a pick from a nutcracker set. Even that's a tight fit.

I should have learned this sooner, but I never thought it would be complicated.

I wrote a frantic email to the husband. Hopefully he'll know how to get something like that open.

UPDATE: I practiced on the teen's bathroom door, which has the same kind of doorknob, until I figured out the mechanism. I had to get the pick in just the right spot and then push to the right. There was much rejoicing when I finally got it opened. I'd told the preschooler she couldn't play on the computer until Mommy got the door unlocked!
