Um, am I supposed to be playing tea party?

I was watching this TV show about a little girl who wished her teddy bear alive so she could have tea parties with him.  It made me think that I've never played tea party with Julianne.  It also made me realize that I've never played tea party at all.  I never played as a kid.  To be honest, I'm not so fond of tea.  I might have it once or twice a year if my mom makes it and puts sugar and milk in it.  Iced tea a bit more often, but I'm still not clamoring to get the Sunday paper to clip coupons for Lipton Tea Bags.
Sometimes I wonder if I'm doing all the mom things I'm supposed to be doing to nurture Julianne.  Do I need to be playing tea party with her so she becomes acquainted with the details of fine dining?  Am I supposed to be taking her to the child's art museum so she can be intellectually stimulated by the colors and shapes?  Should I be cooking different foods that I don't like so her palate can become acquainted with different tastes? 

Does anyone have the Mommy Rule Book that I can borrow?
