What are these spots?

Any idea what these spots could be? He is 21 months and scratching them (can see he's been scratching in darker photo) . Didn't have them this morning only noticed once he got home from childminder. Ok in himself.

Looks like the start of chicken pox.

Are any blistered?

Are they anywhere other than his torso?

Looks like chicken pox to me.

There are several viruses that can cause spots.
Here is a guide that may help

You could always go to the GP on Monday. Or A&E if condition worsens.
