In Fitzgerald's Park - a short walk from the city center there is an interesting free museum that might be good for you as well as a playground if your daughter wants a some time to run around and play.
Was going to suggest this too, the park is a lovely spot once the weather is nice. There's a nice cafe there too.
I'd also recommend checking out Blackrock Castle Observatory (google for web address), I'm sure they have a museum there, your daughter might be interested in this. Even just looking at the castle from the outside is nice
There's also a lovely walk by the river right beside the castle, it's perfect for biking riding and rollerblading and is very popular with the locals.
I've heard people talking about the "Lifetime lab" (www.lifetimelab.ie) too, kids are supposed to be love it, it sounds like an interactive learning centre which was built in a restored waterworks building. The building is very close to Fitzgeralds park, so you could incorporate both.
Also check out Leahy's Pet Farm, never been there but heard good things about it.
If it's wet and you decide against the cultural options check out Monkey Maze in Glanmire, it's an indoor play area for kids of all ages.
I'd highly recommend checking this out for discount vouchers:
