Short visit to Malaysia a worthwhile with a child?

Will be in Hong Kong in Jan 2016 for few days. The coountries close to it are Taiwan, Veitnam , Maylaysia, etc. Does it make sense to take a short flight to Malaysia? I have heared of Lego land and the pictures I saw looks cool and fun. But I heared it is not in Kaula lampur and it is far away somewhere? Any buses that goes there from KL or how much is a taxi $?

We are looking for economical ways to make this visit a worthwhile.
We have been to Singapore, Thailand. If KL is not worth, we can do Taipe or Veitnam but wonder if they will be worth with a child.
May just spend 2 days if we do visit KL.

Thanks

Legoland is in Johor and is 300+km / 4+ hours away from KL by bus.

I'll jump in since you haven't had many replies on this.

Do have a look at a map - you'll see that Legoland's in Johor, probably 30 minutes across the border from Singapore, so one logistically easy option is to fly to Singapore and Uber it or rent a car. Just avoid evening rush hour on the way out, and morning rush hour on the way in, and definitely avoid weekends.

You can't use Uber to cross border. However Legoland is easily accessible from Singapore and there are number of dedicated bus services going there daily.
