It's a nice kit but there's some stuff in it you'll probably never need. Or your wife.
That Tamron 70-300 Di LD is a crap lens. Ask me how I know it. I got it sitting in a box in the basement. If you want decent 70-300 either take Nikkor AF-P DX or Tamron 70-300 VC version. Nilkor should be tack sharp at 300mm wide open (F5.6) where Tamron is gonna do it's best at F8. Both have image stabilisation, but the Tamron is a full format lens and Nikkor is APS-C. They should cost the same and I would choose Nikkor over Tamron in your case. Tripod is most likely a cheap one that's not rigid enough to avoid mirror slap which means you'll have blurry pics at certain shutter speeds. Filters? You'll find out sooner what suits your creativity. Inuse filters mostly as a front element protection as longnas they don't interfere with the picture quality. There are some other things in the kit you'll most likely never need. That bag, I don't know how much gear you can stuff in there except for the camera with a mounted lens. I'd look for a body+camera kit with maybe a quality card and go from there. You can find second hand or refurbished lenses pretty cheap so no need to buy new ones. You'll also find the need for some other accessories but first get to know your camera and lens and find out where their limits are.
