I would take some snacks with you. Food in the park is very samey across all the food outlets and quite expensive. Also you will not see any fruit or veg for miles around, but I do remember seeing a fruit and veg stall in the train station so it might be best to buy a few bits there. If you are driving though I guess you could stock up at home.
DS (5) suffers terribly from a weak and sluggish bowel and if he does not eat enough good stuff, he suffers. I noticed that some of his old problems surfaced towards the end of the week cos there wasn't enough 'good' stuff to eat.
DS enjoyed the Rainforest Cafe for dinner. Bit rubbish really (themed and all that), but what do you really expect in Disney!
He also enjoyed a character dinner at Cafe Mickey.
We had a great time, I hope you do too.
The Star Wars simulation ride is good fun and I am sure yours at the right age to enjoy that.

Bring you umbrellas and waterproof clothing- weather can be a bit umpredictable!

Parade is great, I can't remember what time, but i am sure it will be well advertised.
We gave DS a disposable camera and challenged him to take as many pics of characters as he could. He really enjoyed it and loved getting it developed.

Have also heard that there is a Cars ride opening, though not sure exactly when

You can also buy/take autograph books for the dcs and they can get them signed by the various disney characters. This might give them a mission as they are a bit older than when I took mine.

parade times etc are on the disneyland paris website here

and check out the disboards forum for loads of tips.
