When entering new questions, KudoZ askers are given an opportunity* to classify the difficulty of their questions as 'easy' or 'pro'. If you feel a question marked 'easy' should actually be marked 'pro', and if you have earned more than 20 KudoZ points, you can click the "Vote PRO" button to recommend that change.
How to tell the difference between "easy" and "pro" questions:
An easy question is one that any bilingual person would be able to answer correctly. (Or in the case of monolingual questions, an easy question is one that any native speaker of the language would be able to answer correctly.)
A pro question is anything else... in other words, any question that requires knowledge or skills that are specialized (even slightly).
Another way to think of the difficulty levels is this: an easy question is one that deals with everyday conversation. A pro question is anything else.
When deciding between easy and pro, err on the side of pro. Most questions will be pro.
* Note: non-member askers are not given the option of entering 'pro' questions; the only way for their questions to be classified as 'pro' is for a ProZ.com member or members to re-classify it.

kiddie-speak for "urinate" is wee-wee" in English so I would go with "wee-weer"

the kiddie verb is "wee" but to go for a pee" (i.e urinate) would be "to do/go wee-wees"

and the use of "wee-weeR" is teasing (i.e. a kiddie who habitually needs to "wee")

to soften it
mr/miss wee-wee; wee-wee boy, wee-wee girl
What I suggest is just what I personally would say to a baby or small child to tease...

: is fine but have to be careful if directly addressing the nipper as could lead to problems later :)

absolutely: I (probably wrongly) decided not to add that this kind of talk could only be used for a tiny tot - could be very pejorative if, say, the child was of an age to be 'potty trained' and was having problems in that area
