Q: how can I reactivate my iphone after activating activation lock

Successfully enter the Apple ID and password used to enable Find My Phone.

Then try these links:

If you forgot your Apple ID - Apple Support

If you forgot your Apple ID password - Apple Support

If you forgot the answers to your Apple ID security questions - Apple Support

it tells me that I have the incorrect apple id and password. I need to have the correct apple id and password to which the phone was locked with. It went disabled because the kids typed in the wrong code so many times. I can not unlock/activate it now

Just to be clear, are you talking about your Apple ID & password or your iPhone passcode?  For passcode, see this article:

If you forgot the passcode for your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch, or your device is disabled - Apple Support

for Apple ID & password one of the above links in my post above should get you started.
