2nd the recommendation for the
Fast Pass! Try to plan which rides you want before you actually get to the park.
Also consider the package with all meals included. The only thing you will need cash for is all the souvenirs you will buy.
Make your morning Character Breakfast reservations as soon as you can, and early in the morning (before the park opens if possible). The Crystal Palace is great. Also make your dinner reservations now. Ask if the restaurant at the top of Cinderella's Castle has any openings.
Ride the monorail and enjoy a Character Breakfast at Mickey's Cafe inside the Contemporary Resort.
See the Cirque du Soleil show "La Nouba"
Pack your own rain gear.
Have the kids faces engraved at the Epcot Center commemorating your trip. You can go online later and look-up where the engravings are displayed.
The kids might enjoy gathering signatures from the characters throughout the park, but do not get sucked into buying all the pins.
Pleasure Island is a lot of fun for the adults after the kids crash early!
There is so much to see. Do a lot of research beforehand. Congrats on the trip!

We where in Disney over 9/11. It was a very strange situation at the time. But we where fortunate in that the park was completely empty. We could sit on rides over and over without having to get off. There where no lines for a couple days.
