This is called growing pain and it happens to children at this age due to bone growth. There is nothing much to worry if he is active and playful in the morning. If the pain persists, you can get Calcium, Phosphate, ALP and Vitamin D levels of your child checked to rule out vitamin D deficiency.
Thanks and take care
