Hi,
Thanks for writing your query.

Diarrhoea in children should be taken care of medically.
It seems that your child is having enteritis, an infection in the gastrointestinal tract.

Get his stool investigated for Routine/Microscopic examination.

If reports confirm infection, he should be given antibiotic/antiamoebic according to the reports.

Take care of his diet. He should be given light meals.
Maintain adequate hydration. Oral Rehydration Fluids are an important part of management of electrolyte and fluid loss during diarrhoea.

I would suggest that he should be examined clinically by a Paediatrician.
I hope this is helpful to you.
Thanks.
