Write it to parents, not kids: say who it's for (ages 6 to 10), that a parent stays for the class, the date and price, and what their child takes home. Use the corrected details and leave out the shop's other events. Keep it under 70 words, plain text, no emojis, with the sign-up link as the very last line. Write a prompt that gets that blurb.","materialLabel":"Your event notes (attached to your prompt automatically)","material":"Fern & Fig - events notes (Nov)\n\nKIDS' TERRARIUM WORKSHOP\n- Saturday, March 8, 10-11:30am, at the shop (31 Linden Ave)\n- Ages 6-10\n- $25 per child\n- Each kid builds a mini terrarium in a glass jar and takes it home, plus a care card with watering tips\n- Max 12 kids. One parent or guardian stays for the class (our insurance requires it)\n- Sign up: fernandfig.example/kids\n- Messy! Old clothes are a good idea.\n\nUPDATE (Nov 6, from Tess): we had to move it. The workshop is now SUNDAY, March 9, same time, 10-11:30am. Also the jars and moss cost more than we thought, so it's $28 per child, materials included. Everything else stays the same.\n\nOTHER EVENTS (not for the school newsletter):\n- Wine & Succulents night, Fri Feb 20, adults 21+, $40\n- Houseplant swap, every first Sunday, free\n\nSchool newsletter contact: Ms. Alvarez, Brookside Elementary PTA. Goes out to about 400 families. Most parents read it on their phone.\n\nIdea from Tess: \"Kids love getting their hands dirty!\" as an opener?","rules":[{"type":"maxWords","max":70},{"type":"plainText"}],"mistakes":[{"title":"Not saying who will read it","why":"The AI writes a fun ad to kids (\"Get your hands dirty!\") and skips what parents need, like the age range and that they must stay.","fix":"Add: \"Write to parents.
