Spots .... what could they be?

I have just noticed two spots on DS' back. They are perfectly round, red and about an inch apart. Not raised or itchy ...
What could they be?
Any ideas?

My first thought was chicken pox. Dd's started like that, by the next day the spots had fluid in them and there were alot more of them.

How old is Ds ??

You live in NZ don't you, forgot that. Thought i had been on Mn all night for a mo then

Can't really think of anything else it could be.
My Dd's spots started on her back too.

Don't worry about having sent him to kindy. If it is chicken pox, he will of been contagious before today anyway. They may ask you to collect him if they spot mor spots though.
