2. Make a city out of paper on your desk
Draw each building and each element of your city separately on paper. Be sure to leave free space around the edges at the side and bottom to allow the building to stand on the table. Your city does not need to be recognizable at all, maybe it will be a fairytale kingdom of a princess or a magical city of fairies. There may be castles, lanterns, benches, bushes, fountains, figurines of inhabitants, cars, animals and much more, or rather everything that your fantasy will tell you.

The dream of all children is of course a new Playstation or Xbox.
Maybe they need a new laptop or a drawing tablet they've been dreaming about.
And perhaps they do not need gadgets, but sets for creativity - products for drawing, sewing materials, polymer clay for modeling. Ask them. Now would be a best time to spend time developing new skills. And in games, too:) Maybe, your child is a future super streamer. And maybe it's time for them to start their youtube career with new camera.
The main thing is that the thing you buy them bring them joy, occupy them and perhaps allow them to spend time with benefit, developing new skills and abilities.
Or get them a bunch of books. Reading is a very useful activity, and it certainly distracts from any bad thoughts and feelings.
