My kids are usually done exploring and ready for something new after about 2 hours so I would recommend no more than 2-3 hours at science city BUT there is tons to do at union station and at near by crown center to fill the entire day!

I think 2 hours is enough time to spend at Science City if that’s what you’re looking at specifically. It’s more of an interactive thing for kids to play and you can spend as little or as much time as you want. There’s plenty to do! There are lots of other things to do in Union Station, though, if that’s what you’re asking about and, again, I think you could spend as little or as much time here as you wanted.
