Orlando - which park best for 3 & 5 yr old

We are doing MK and MGM with our 3 & 5 yr old.. We have one more day left and can't decide between Animal Kingdom or a Water Park. At ages 3 & 5 is the water park worth it and which one?? We will be there the last week in August when it's hot.
Also, if we go the Friday immediately before Labor Day, will we be sorry? I know Sat, Sun & Mon are out of the question.

thanks for the responses... I guess we will avoid Friday before Labor Day and we will do a water park over Animal Kingdom. Is one water park better then the other for 3-5 year olds?

Typhoon Lagoon is my favorite park but I like the Family Slide at Blizzard Beach much more than the one at Typhoon Lagoon. Also, the kids will be too small for the new Slush 'n Gusher water-coaster at Typhoon

Here are two links with great pictures of the water parks:

Typhoon Lagoon: http://disneylinks.net/Parks/TyphoonLagoon/

Blizzard Beach:

Also, do not buy the Water Fun & More option if you are only doing one water park - it is less expensive to buy the one day pass. The WF&M is only worthwhile if you are doing 2 water parks or 1 water park and 2 of the other options like DisneyQuest etc. Compare prices at www.ticketmania.com.
