Video help?

I'm trying to help my mom record a video for YouTube. We've been using my little Canon Powershot, but the sound quality is horrible. She ends up with a lisp. The visual is fine.
Is there any way I can record audio in a better quality format?
I have a small headset, for instance, with a microphone. I have a good fast laptop, so I could try using its microphone. Anyone have ideas or suggestions?
I'm running Windows 7 Home Premium. I'm OK with spending a bit of money (say twenty dollars) but not a whole lot (not more than a hundred).

If you end up with a file that's almost there but needs a little help, you're welcome to send it to me and I can have a look. I have Logic (DAW), which has a whole bunch of pro audio effects, and between it and the manuals I might be able to clean it up a little.
