Hello,
It could be a bout of gastroenteritis. It could be viral in origin and will settle by itself in most of the cases. If the kid experience symptoms like fever or blood in stools, antibiotics may be needed. Consult a pediatrician and he will direct you accordingly.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
