Things to do in Lyon, France - heatwave

Any recommendations for things to do for 2 days in Lyon, with teenagers? We are a foodie family, the kids will cooperate with museums and galleries, and we like mooching around. However it is going to be a heatwave, so we want to plan our time rather than wander for miles round the city like we usually would. Thank you 🙏

The Museè des Confluences is really cool! It has the best dinosaur exhibition I've ever seen. It also had aircon. It will definitely kill a few hours. It's a very tough city in the heat so good luck!

Gallo-Roman museum of Lyon is fabulous! And you can take the cute little funiculars to get to it which have gorgeous views

The roman museum in Vienne is brilliant with AC, although the one in town is also very good, plus a nice train ride, also with AC. The Piscine Tony Bertrand had an openair Olympic size family pool AND an Olympic training pool right on the river.
