Fun ideas with a 4 year old

I have spring break next week, and I'm trying to get all my homework done now so Ainsley and I can spend some quality time together next week. I'll still have to work, but mostly in the mornings.
I'll also be lacking in the money department, so cheap ideas would be great.
I have no idea what the weather will be like probably 40-50's so we won't be able to do much outside.

Making bird houses with popsicle sticks

Etc.

You just reminded me we have a bird house kit! I'll put it together and then we can paint it and put it outside.
