Rest voice: These are usually from either overuse or a simple upper airway virus. Moist/heated air can help but most kids won't sit still for it. I would encourage the kid to play quiet games & avoid using their words when possible until the voice comes back in a few days.

Fluids/cool air mist: Fluids and cool air mist may help to relieve his hoarseness. He may be developing an upper respiratory tract infection. Please monitor his temperature and follow up with your pediatrician.
