I went with my 2 small children for a work event for the entire day. We did everything and they didn't tired till we got into the car at closing. One thing you can avoid if limited with time is the Dinosaur Exhibit. Although the exhibit itself is great with the reincarnation of what the dinosaur could have looked and done and the commentary from Ginger (his name for himself, the young man is hilarious with describing the different events), it goes by quickly for a long wait time. You are better off checking it out early with little to no wait or skipping it and enjoying the rest of the zoo with actual live animals.
