Uses for "fancy" vanilla beans

After making too many batches of extract/paste to count, we have decided to embark on uniquely sourced vanilla as a fun project with my daughters. However I am not sure if "just making extract" is the way to go with the more expensive beans(I would like to use the seeds, THEN making extract with the pods-unless there is a better way) What would highlight the vanilla flavor & allow the differences to shine??
