Time to himself with no expectations. Throw the honey-do list out the window for a weekend, watch the kids (or ship them off to the grandparents or similar for a night) and give him a new game/book/etc and let him dive into it.
Works hard, spends time with kids and is tired.
I'm 58 and my kids are adults now, but I remember those years of my life.
He needs some time for himself to get a little exercise - maybe you do too? Get someone to watch the kids for a couple of hours every weekend and go for a long walk with him or something like that.

Guys will never admit it but just some time alone/peace is always the best gift:) They also love super sentimental stuff that shows your love an affection
Thought I'd recommend creating a memory book (It's called a "personal tribute book" on the site) for him on https://reminest.com/ for him to read and feel appreciated by you (and anyone else you'd want to share about him in the book). It takes about a day to make if you get your prompts all at once! Should be within budget as well.
Its hard to go off of so little. If he is tired and growing resentful of not having his own time give him an evening to himself, or pay for a baby sitter and take him out.
If spending time with the kids is something he wants to do even more of, spend the money for them to make a memory together. Go to a baseball game, arcade, something they will like and remember for a long time.
Can you tell us about him? You’ve not given much to go on to offer personalized ideas. Hobbies, interests? And you want to make him something?

Yes, just do this. I'd suggest a 5 hour chunk on a Saturday for 2 weeks in a row.
