Can my wife and daugter (5 years old) ride any of the following as a group of three ?

1. Big Thunder Mounain Railroad
2. Haunted Mansion
3. Spaceship Earth
4. Toy Story (I recognize there are only 2 "triggers")

thx
 
spaceship earth, one of you will have to sit in the back seat of the car, but you will be together on the same car. Not sure about Toy Story, only rode once and years ago. The first two are two seat only per row.
 
We have ridden all of your listed rides with 3 people. One average size adult, one slightly over average, and one young child. Spaceship Earth takes a pic and uses it in the end. It only takes the two people in the chairs on the side but you could fit a third in the middle. Its a little oddly shaped for 3 though. The others no problem except as you mention one person doesn't get to "play" Toy Story.
 
Yes for #2, #3 and #4. Not sure about #1. The space may be tight with Spaceship Earth and Toy Story--fine for my tiny 3 years old to sit between, no sure about an avg 5 years old. SE has front and back rows in each car. Also, it takes images of the 2 rides for the interactive activity at the end of the ride. Toy Story has seat that is back to back. Your family will be in the same car, but not seeing each other.
 

#1 - depends on your size I guess. We have rode with 3...there is less sliding around ;)
#2 - definitely can do 3 on this ride
#3 - Spaceship Earth is meant for 2 people as they take your picture and have interactive screens at the end, I do think there is a slight bump between the seats and the person in the middle might have a hard time hearing as the speakers are in the headrest.
#4 - I would do only 2 people, why would you not want to play and miss out on the whole point of the ride?
 
I have ridden all of them with 3 people. But I was the only adult (and I'm an average sized adult) with 2 young children (ages 6 and 7). Well for Toy Story it was me, my 6 year old and my 1 year old.

Three of us rode all these rides when DD was 5. DH and I are average size and DD was also for her age. A coupe years ago I went with my DD and mom and we also rode all these together. My mom is a little bigger than me and DD was 6 (almost 7) on that trip.
1. We all fit, might be a little snug depending on how big the people are.
2. 3 should just fine.
3. Both times we rode with 3 people, 2 people sat in front and 1 in back, but in the same car.
4. When DH was with us, I wasn't feeling well so I sat in the middle and DD and DH used the shooters. When my mom was with us, DD and I sat on one side and my mom sat on the other. But again we are all in the same car.
 
I'm 5"9 & about 230lbs a US size 16
Husband is 6"1 about 190lbs
Son was 5 years old but tall for his age wears a 6/7 in clothes

1. Big Thunder Mounain Railroad - Yes all 3 can, I've also road it with my sister and step dad (snugly)
2. Haunted Mansion - Yes again no problem
3. Spaceship Earth - Never Road
4. Toy Story (I recognize there are only 2 "triggers") - Being 5 they will want their own shooter, and with how long of a wait you will have in standby or how precious of a FP it is you will want to shoot too.. My husband and son road together and I road behind them.
 
Just one thing to note -- this can vary with cast members. We had a somewhat bad experience getting on HM last year, because the cast member wouldn't let us ride with three in one car. You could literally see people ahead of us riding three in a car, and there is plenty of space for three people. My wife got a bit upset and was about to argue with the CM, but I just jumped in a car by myself, and my wife and son rode together - it didn't seem worth arguing about. I have to say, I did not really enjoy it riding by myself. I tried to take some pictures of them with the flash turned off -- as you would imagine, the pictures did not come out, with no flash.
