Looks great! As a mom of little ones, the early dinner times work great for us. I'm sure the kids in your party will appreciate that!
 
Just one suggestion: do you want to add in a character meal so the toddlers can get their pictures taken with, say, Mickey Mouse or Donald Duck? (I'm thinking a Chef Mickey's or Tusker House or Cape May breakfast.

Or are they young enough that being that close to a character will scare them?

We have a Tusker House ADR for Monday dinner.
 

For our family, we took afternoon breaks/naps with toddlers, so those 4 pm dinners would be too early for us. The breaks usually meant we were out of the parks from about 1 to 5 pm.

If you're planning to stay through, then the early dinners are probably good!
 
If you have BOG dinner, I wouldn't do breakfast as well. Unless you are using it for PPO and plan on ordering a cup of coffee to split between all of you. And please don't do that.

Once you've seen the castle, well, you've seen the castle.
