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.

Clear Contact Paper

Cheaper than forking over serious cash for a laminator and always entertaining for kids, clear contact paper is all kinds of cool. Kids can make suncatchers, placemats, or sand painting and even a black light table.

Available at amazon.com $15.48.
