The possibilities to be considered are nearly endless for excessive tiredness/fatigue/listlessness: prominent easily treatable ones are anemia, hypothyroidism, obstructive sleep apnea, depression, etc, etc
For this, a good history, examination & occasionally screening tests will be required
Next Steps
Approach a pediatrician, for preliminary workup.
