I agree that you should be getting some kind of an adequate aquarium for your Betta fish. Many people do keep them in bowls, and even in vases with plants growing in them; but this is a terrible thing to do to any fish. They need room to swim around, as well as a healthy environment.
Not only that, but you are probably going to just waste your money on an expensive fish if you do not get a proper tank, since the Betta will likely not live long, and then you and your son will be very sad, as well.
Bettas are a great fish to own and watch. My mom had them when I was growing up, and I later had a Betta when my children were little, and we always enjoyed watching them "flare out" their fins and show off.
