I would go to LA zoo..I would visit the Huntington Library in San Marino it's great. If you have kids Descanso Gardens, or the LA Arboretum. The zoo is good, zoos are not my fav. I would prefer the Long Beach Aquarium too.But kids love zoos. So it all depends.

When you say Hollywood do you mean the sign or along the walk of fame? If you mean the sign then it’s either a long walk or Uber. If you want the walk of fame you can get The 96 bus to perishing square station then change to the metro red line and get off at Hollywood/highland station - takes a little over an hour. However either of these by Uber would probably only take 15 minutes max depending on traffic and probably only cost $10 so depending how many of you there are it may work out cheaper.
