Pediatrician 's  Response
Even though the child has not showed signs of dizziness and vomiting, I would strongly advise that you take the child to the emergency room of a hospital without delay. A period of hospital observation might be essential in such a case. Although the child being playful poses less cause to worry, it is only after proper evaluation, the doctor would be able to tell if things are ok.
