We are going to be at Magic Kingdom on Friday May 12th for morning EMH from 8-9am. Is it reasonable to get the following rides done during the first hour if we arrive early? We are planning on doing them in this order:

1. Peter Pan
2. Winnie the Pooh
3. Tomorrowland Speedway
4. Barnstormer
5. Dumbo
6. Buzz Lightyear at the end of the hour or beginning of regular park hours.

Any insight would be appreciated. Thanks!

You're walking back and forth across the park more than youre riding things in this hour. Seriously, Peter Pan and Winnie then I'd do Barnstormer and Dumbo then Buzz and Speedway.
Just don't expect to get them all done in that EMH, some will def fall outside of it with queue lines, walking and actual amount of time you are on each ride. Just FYI.

Peter Pan is gonna be interesting. IF you can get to it and be towards the front of the line, you stand a slight chance of getting the others done. I'd be coming up with a backup plan in case this doesn't work. Buzz can get to have a pretty good line as well.
 
I usually go to morning EMH at MK around this time of the year and you can get a lot of rides in. I wouldn't expect you to have any problem with 2 through 6. I'm really not sure about Peter Pan's Flight, though, because I usually fast pass it after the park opens. A lot of people may head directly back to SDMT rather than PPF, so your plan might work. I agree with a previous poster who recommended that you hit these attractions in a more fluid order so you don't spend your valuable EMH time walking back and forth.
 

Peter Pan is your biggest problem. I have been in the park when it has a 15 minute wait at the open. But - if you aren't going to fast pass it - that is the only time to ride it.

I think you could definitely do Buzz, then Speedway, then Pooh, then Dumbo, then Barnstormer in the first hour. I agree with those who say minimizing the walking is important.

Pray for rain.
 
We have RD peter pan many times. We ususally have a 5-15 min wait, which is good for us because of the activities in the queue. I don't know that you could really get all 6 rides done in an hour. I would suspect this list would you take you closer to 1.5-2hours, you have to take into account not only the time in line, but time of the ride and walking to and from. You may be interested in a touringplans subscription if you're trying to get really precise.
 
Speedway takes awhile, I would leave it for just after regular opening. It won't have a long line then.
