Chaos is good?

Recently I read an article in one of those free parenting magazine's you get at your OB's office, that chaos is good for babies. They essentially said that since you never know what will strike a child's creative fancy, having a lot of stuff sitting around all the time can give their little brains lots of stimulation. As I read this, I felt a pang of relief! Thank heavens! My less-than-walk-through-able house isn't just one more thing to feel guilty about! In fact, it's helping baby bear's neural pathways to develop and princess' creative juices to flow :)
