Hi there, I think that EAA might be your next step here. You don't need a fancy camera (your DSLR would be fine) on bright colourful objects like Orion (EAA will turn the colour on) and you can show it on a laptop screen in real time. SharpCap will do this well, and can remove the field rotation from your mount on the fly. The family will still be able to see what's happening on the screen, but the results will be more spectacular.
In about 6-8 months time, the outer planets will start to come out at a reasonable time, for best results on them you should think about a better eyepiece (in the 7-8mm range) and/or the Baader Contrast Booster filter to really show off the colours in those cloud bands. A 2x barlow and planetary camera like the ASI224MC would be ideal for imaging the planets if you get really interested
