I think Romà is saying there's a grammatical error in the video. Andrew types "it's children" which is the contraction of "it is" rather than "its children" which is the gender-nonspecific possessive.

If you mean in CSS then ul > li ......the > is what is important. If you wanna use Jquery: .children() or jQuery( ":first-child" ) or jQuery( ":nth-child(index/even/odd/equation)" ).
