What Could Be The Reason For Sudden Appearance Of Rash On A 3 Year Old Child?

Hello - my son woke up today with a generalized rash. He is 3 1/2, It is raised in some areas, spotty in others. No fevers, not itching it. He is relatively up to date with immuniztions, although he has not had his MMR, however, it doesn t look like that or chicken pox.
