Another few things would be to find out what the driver uses for brake pads, brake fluid, rotors, oil filter, etc., as those can be pricey and nice gifts. (I use Hawk DTC-60 front, HP+ rear pads, Motul RBF-600 fluid)
Portable battery powered air pump for tires I have one very similar to this. It's cheap and great to use for adjusting pressures before sessions.
A decent tire pressure gauge This is the one I have and have used for several years and I have been very happy with it.

Torque wrench, +200 ft/lbs This is the one I have been using for a few years and it works well.
I've got lots of other ideas for tools and such; specific socket sets, impact gun & sockets, special bits for your car, magnet, flash lights/head lamp/stick light, channel locks, stubby sockets, various wrenches, extensions, breaker bar, bits, allen wrenches, vice grips, pry bars, adapters, pliers, cutters, etc that would be good to put on your list if you don't have them in your kit.
Happy holidays!
Would be simpler to put it on ramps or simply lower the car to get it level. I've never seen a car where you need to lift all four corners to do ATF drain/refill but could be wrong.
You need sturdy jackstands and a strong jack. Since the parking brake is on the rear wheels and the front end is heaviest, I would lift the front first and put the car on the front jackstands then do the back end second.
Of course you need jackstands that don't eff up your pinch welds and I assume your car has a front/rear central jack point for a floor jack?
