Crayons. Paper. Glitter. Glue. You’ve got the basic supply list down pat. In fact, you probably have it on auto-order from Amazon. When it comes to the I-never-knew-I-needed-this list, however, we’re betting you might already have it somewhere else in the house—if not, we’ll show you where to grab everything on the list. From essential playdoh ingredients to hair conditioner (who knew?!) and even golf tees, flip through the slideshow below for everyday items we’ve caught moonlighting as must-have playtime supplies.

Condiment Bottles

Not just for ketchup and mustard, condiment bottles make fantastic paint squirters. Easily capped (read: contained) and color identifiable, this could potentially cut way back on the ginormous globs of paint you’ll be cleaning off that shiny new oilcloth spread.
Available at amazon.com$10.89 for a pack of six.
