Its always good to teach and share to reinforce your existing skills and discover new ones.
Like many said, mentoring or taking up/ suggesting new projects may be a plausible avenue. You could also internally create some challenges for yourself in relation to work, for example I may want to have codes in portable modular form so I can use for other projects etc.
There is no need to burn bridges even if the work is not fitting, especially when people are nice.
Ultimately, this is admittedly short term. Alignment of interests and incentives are critical in the long run, thats why often people are willing to forgo larger stable paychecks to head over to risky startups with low paychecks.
