I don't know if they have "Turtle Talk" with Crush at DW, but you have to go see it at DCA. My nephews loved it. The kids sit around a screen and a turtle swims down and holds a conversation with them. Not a fake conversation, either. He is actually interacting. Amazing, and as much fun for adults to watch as for kids to share. Also not to miss: Pirates and Tiki Room. I understand they are quite different at WDW. Storybook land and Casey Jr. are not to be missed attractions for the under 5 set. Personally, I love storybook land even and I'm over 40. And take at least one trip on the train all the way through the park. There is a wonderful diorama comparing the grand canyon now and what it might have looked like when dinosaurs roamed the earth. I remember that as a favorite when I was little. The dinosaurs are a bit scary, though, so make sure you prepare the little ones. My nephews love the Pooh ride, although it bores me to tears. Mostly just bright neon rooms with nothing really happening, but kids love it. Watch out for Snow White and Mr. Toad, though. Little kids can't always tell the difference between real and fantasy, and those rides have traumatized generations of youth. I love them, but I didn't when I was little. You know your kids tolerance levels.
Dining is very different. You do need reservations at places like Blue Bayou, but it's not like Epcot, where there are numerous restaurants. I generally plan 3 days between the parks, and move freely between parks. This is a leisurely pace, but we generally travel in the off season, so you can do a lot in 3 days. With little kids, I strongly recommend that you stay on-site or at a very near hotel (there are some off-site hotels that are closer than on-site ones) so that you can go back and swim and rest in the afternoons. All day at DL is a lot for little kids. It's not as big as DW, so you're going to be in crowds a lot more. DL is more intense Disney, imo.
