Hi !
In order for Everyday Looper to work with an iPod Touch, your iPod Touch has to be a V2 or V3 version and you have to use a headset.
Regarding the version of the iPod Touch, you normally can't buy it with a V1, so the problem should not be there.
If your iPod Touch is a V3, it comes bundled with an headset (headphones with mic integrated on the cable), so simply use it.
If it's a V2 you'll have to buy a headset or an iPhone external microphone integrating an headphone jack (like the philips shh 1610).
If you needs more information, feel free to ask

.
Hope you and your son will have much fun with the looper
