Care package ideas for child in hospital & their parents/sibling

I could really do with some recommendations of things to send my lovely friend who is going to be spending an awful lot of time in hospital with her young (primary KS1 age) child after a sudden serious diagnosis.

Things for her, her poorly child, their younger sibling, and also her husband. I am far away and want to be of help if I can, but also don’t want to bombard them.

How about colouring books and pencils.
My DH is in touch with a man in China who has been in hospital for almost 40 days.
We sent a couple of adult colouring books, pencils, sharpener and a deck of cards

An UberEats gift card? Food in hospital is CRAP and they should be able to get it delivered, meeting them outdoors.

Oh that’s a good idea. Had thought of colouring for the little one but adult colouring books are a great shout, as are cards.
