Here's a small example of how TextBox.TextSize would work there's also more info here.

Instance.new("ScreenGui",game.StarterGui)

local textBOX = Instance.new("TextBox",game.StarterGui.ScreenGui)

textBOX.Visible = true

textBOX.Text = "timer"

textBOX.TextSize = 5, 25, 5 --Just an example

Unless you're changing the box and not the text so instead you'll need to tween the box size.

textBOX:TweenSize(Udim2.new(0, 20, 0, 20), "Out", "Back", 1)

textBOX:TweenSize(Udim2.new(0, 20, 0, 20), "Out", "Back", 1)

TweenService is basically giving the ability to move your GUI on a player’s screen. Not much else I can say at the moment but I do know a good video explaining TweenService pretty well.
