Hi...what your kid is going through is a viral diarrhoea. Usually it is a self limiting condition. Unless the kid is lethargic with sunken eye balls or has very low urine output or has blood in the motion or has green bilious vomiting you need not worry.
I suggest you use zinc supplements and ORS for dehydration.
If any of the above red flag signs develop I suggest you rush to the nearest emergency room immediately.
