How do you find things online / ideas for ballerina unit study

Over the last month or so as I've been learning about homeschooing, I've bookmarked dozens of amazing homeschooling websites.  Now I'm about to put together my first "unit study" and I'm at a loss as to where to start.

DD has been obsessed with ballerinas today, and we just happened to find a ballerina book while we were out shopping for books I need for her curriculum this fall. Now I want to find a youtube video of little ballerinas to show her, but I'd like to also have at least a coloring page, and hopefully a craft or activity of some sort...

How do you organize what you've found online so it is usable? and does anyone know where I can find ideas for a ballerina unit study?

I use my favorites organized by subject/theme or type of item.  Sometimes, I may save a URL in multipe headings for the purpose too!  

As for more material on ballerinas, check out the following link:   Ballerina Search with Usborne Books and More.

 

Let me know if any of it helps.

: ) we watched them for quite a while ourselves!  She loved them all.  I'd been thinking about enrolling her in a class, but after watching a few classes that were her age, I decided to wait until she's older.  The classes we watched that were age, were just kids running around, learning to follow instructions.

Thanks for all your help!
