Host an Open-Mic Night

I am always surprised by the talents of people around me. I mean really impressed. Many times that shy, quiet child or even that rambunctious, loud prankster has an amazing talent. Bring it out by hosting an open-mic night. Buy or rent a microphone. Yes, I broke it down to the simplest form.  Put the mic in the front of the room you will be hosting in, have some "at the show" snacks, add in fun sing-a-long music, and then invite kids, teens, and family over.  Let them know that any form of entertainment is game. Jokes, songs, poetry, whatever strikes their fancy, and then sit back and enjoy the show.

 If everyone is too quiet, make a game out of it. Pass the microphone around and ask a question such as "What is the first word that comes to mind when I say... Porcupine?". Then, everyone in the group individually says the first thing that came to their mind into the mic and passes it to the next person. The person responsible for asking the question rotates to the next person on their right.  (or left. It's your house, your rules)  At the very least, some of the answers will be humorous.

This idea works great for teens. Of course, they will be quiet at first. But leave the room, let them put on their own music, and wait for the magic.
