Default Access to Internet via Vista Laptop

Hi I need some help on setting up my sons desktop PC with XP to connect via
my laptop running Vista enabling him to connect via my laptop to the internet.
My laptop is connected via Ethernet cable to a Virgin Cable modem and I can
access the internet OK. My laptop also has a wireless card as does my sons PC.
I need to be able to allow my son to connect wirelessly to my laptop and
route him via the wired connection to the internet. How can I do this please?
