Time's Up! Kids is a board game released in 2015 for 2–12 players, 20 minutes per game, and ages 4 and up. It was designed by Peter Sarrett and its main mechanics are Memory, Team-Based Game, and Communication Limits.
Time's Up! Kids features the familiar Time's Up! gameplay, with players giving clues as in charades in order to get their teammates to guess a word or phrase. What differs with Time's Up! Kids, however, is that the cards feature only images with no text! The game lasts two rounds with players using the same set of cards in both rounds. In the first round, players can describe the cards in order to give clues to teammates, while in the second round they can only mime clues. Whichever team scores the most points wins!
Time's Up! Kids supports 2–12 players according to the catalogue. This range comes from the publisher’s listed player count, so the game can be set up for any group size within it. Some setups, rules and scoring details may still vary by player count, so check your edition’s rulebook for the exact configuration.
The listed playing time for Time's Up! Kids is 20 minutes. This is the publisher’s estimate for a full game. The actual duration depends on the group, the player count and familiarity with the rules: first sessions usually run longer, while experienced groups often finish faster. Setup and teaching time are not included in this estimate.
The catalogue lists Time's Up! Kids for ages 4 and up. This is the publisher’s recommendation and reflects reading demands, rule complexity and small components rather than theme alone. Younger players can often join with help from an adult, so check the age guidance on your edition and consider your group’s experience with board games.
Time's Up! Kids has a complexity rating of 1.0 out of 5 from BoardGameGeek players, which makes it a light game. The rating reflects how much rules knowledge, planning and decision-making a typical game demands. Expect a longer first teach for heavier games, and use a preparation guide before game night.
