It depends on her storage needs. If she’s making files she’ll probably not want the 64GB version. So you’d be looking at the 256GB base for $500 or the 128GB 11” Air for $600. That’s not that big a jump for the added utility.
I agree with the other poster; maybe look at refurb and a 2nd gen pencil.
Or just don’t get one. But it sounds like this is on the short list to buy for you two.
She lived with an iPhone 64GB up until last week and I expect that her tablet storage needs to be even smaller (e.g.: no photos). So yes, 64GB is fine.

This is actually what I am going to do: wait until there is a better base iPad version. Unless I can get an older iPad Pro for a cheap price, but it is unlikely here in EU.
I would suggest the iPad Air 5th or 4th generation. They should be pretty close in price to a base iPad, probably less for the 4th generation.
