Sleep walking and talking common phenomenon. Nothing to worry too much about that. There is no definite treatment for that. Just take care that he should not harm himself in sleep walking. Sometimes his limbs need to tie before sleep. Few medicines are there you can visit near by Psychiatrist for that. This phenomenon subsides with time.
