Do they have pain?: Are they eating anything different than usual? Anything particularly hot/cold/spicy? Sore throat? Rash anywhere? Please have their doctor take a look to make sure it isn't anything abnormal.

Strawberry tongue: Sounds a bit unusual, but if this is an isolated symptom, I think that's ok, just be on the lookout for fever, peeling skin, intense redness of skin, swollen neck and lymph node areas, and other symptoms associated with Strep phayngitis and Kawasacki disease
