Last year I crocheted a cardigan for my niece. I did some miscalculation on yarn needed and then my daughter told me, how much she liked the colour. This made obvious I could not bring back the leftover but make something for her from it.
A crochet top for example.
Top / tank
This is a very quick project - one days worth of commuting (35 minutes each turn) plus one evening in kindergarten where we talked about various things and it was done.

My gauge was a bit different from the original so I made a size 7/8 years to get size 5/6 years. This way it fits perfectly.
