Here is some basic information to help set context as you watch the video. Children's House is a Montessori classroom for children between the ages of around 3 to 6 (preK/K). Normalization is the term Montessorians use to describe the process of children opening up, settling in, and flourishing in their school environment. It is a resetting back to their natural state of joyful, kind curiosity.
