I'm not really sure about regional differneces, but Twee is used in the Midrealm and Ealdormere, espcially the term "a little too twee". So I'm pretty sure it counts as an SCAism

While I'm sure Terry Pratchett has popularised this word in the north american context, i know I've used twee on occasion since childhood.

Also, do we need to use "smalls" here or anywhere else other than in a definintion of itself and children? I don't see any gain over using children, which is medieval and non-regional (smalls isn't used in Australian SCA).
