Is It A Matter Of Concern If Child Is Passing Green Coloured Stools?

I noticed that after having a bowel movement, my 3 yr. old granddaughter s stool color was green. After inquiring about her diet for the past 48 hrs. could not come to any conclusion for the problem Should this be watched for the next few days or is this cause for concern. I was under the impression that green meant infection. Can you shed some light on this?
