My only problem with parades is they are right in the middle of the afternoons (NAPTIME) We tried to get back to the resort right after lunch everyday for the kids naptime before heading back to a park for dinner. Eventually they will not require an afternoon nap and we will be able to stay longer in the parks. Although next trip we are planning two NON Park days to rest up between days in the parks so maybe we will try to catch an afternoon parade. It would be nice if they had a morning parade once in awhile....I bet your kids would love the parades, my son just adores them!
