I have taught many of my children on Janome and some other people's children. When we made gift sewing kits we put in a pin cushion, long pins, scissors, thread, ruler, tape, a sewing box or one of those bags to put sewing notions in,FQs, thimble, sewing needles hand, and machine, a simple precut doll quilt kit with pattern or a pillow case pattern with precut fabric.
