WordPress should handle all redirections correctly, without you needing to worry about them. For example, if your old post was http://example.com/2012/10/11/i-like-stackexchange any links should auto-magically be redirected to http://example.com/favorite-things/i-like-stackexchange. I just tested it on a site with WordPress 3.4 installed, and it worked just fine. WordPress can read your mind.
