Hi Erin,
Your trip is just around the corner and I know you'll have a BLAST with your kids! Seeing the magic through a 5 and 6 year old's eyes is so much fun.
You can check park hours (including Extra Magic Hours), parade & fireworks schedules for all four of the theme parks on-line by clicking on the following links:
Magic Kingdom
Disney's Hollywood Studios
Disney's Animal Kingdom
Epcot
Select
August from the drop down list next to the
View Month tab. That will take you to the August calendar which will list park hours and Extra Magic Hours. Click on a specific day for parade & fireworks schedules. Be sure you pick up a Times Guide as you enter the parks to confirm as schedules are always subject to change without notice.
If the hyperlinks above don't work, go to the Disney homepage
http://disneyworld.disney.go.com. Then choose a theme park under the
Parks button at the top of the page which will take you to the overview page for the park you selected. On the left side of that page, you'll see an option for the
Calendar for that park. From there, follow the steps listed above.
If you'd like me to check any specific dates for any of the parks, let me know and I'll be happy to do that for you. Wishing you many magical memories :-) Allison
