Traditionally you can throw kief on top of a bowl and cover it with a bit more green then light. That's the obvious and straightforward thing to do with it.
You can go further beyond and process it into a form of hash. The current new age thing is heat pressed rosin hash since it can be dabbed, however presses are pricey upfront if you're lucky a local dispensary or cbd store will let you rent one out for the hour.
The old heads traditionally put boiling water in a wine bottle and roll the hot bottle across the kief folded in parchment paper.
Another option is getting yourself some cheap bubble bags off amazon and learning how to make bubble hash. Usually bubble hash makes more sense when you have a LOT of material to work with but just putting the kief through a 10 minute shake bath in ice water filled mason jar and straining will provide you an excellent sample of bubble hash.
Finally, you may try to use solvents to distill it into an oil based tincture to ingest orally. This is typically done by soaking the flower or kief in pure alcohol until all the oils have been extracted, then boiling off the alcohol (dangerous and requires extreme caution) or decarbing the material beforehand and letting the alcohol solvent air dry in a shallow wide dish.
