The theme that would best express the story idea is: Even mature adults have a childlike side to their personalities.

The story idea does not indicate that the woman has children, nor indicates what her stance was on trying new things. The story idea only states that the adult woman is playing with a dollhouse, so there is a part of her that is still childlike.
