That does not describe me so I tried searching for "IoT projects for home", "IoT projects for kids", "IoT connected devices". Curiously, articles from the better-known journals were from 2014 (11 Internet of Things ideas worth watching | Network World and Internet Of Things: 8 Pioneering Ideas - InformationWeek).
Interestingly, the site that actually had ides that fall within the above quote was Microsoft Projects. Perhaps that will give you some ideas (although you're probably already familiar with it as well as Azure IoT Developer Center.
Sorry, I don't have any other suggestions since its not my area of interest.
