You’re thinking about this the right way but there’s a key piece of how blocks work that you’re not following:

**Each block gets evaluated in order.** For example `if [current hour] = [5 < 12]` first starts by checking to see if 5 is less than 12. Since it is, the \< block returns TRUE. Then your = block is checking to see if the current hour (let’s say 9) is equal to TRUE. That doesn’t make sense. We can’t really compare the number 9 to the value TRUE.

What you want instead is `if current hour > 5 AND current hour < 12` do…

It’s important that you don’t compare numbers to text. The 12 block is not the same as the “12” block. You should only be using the number blocks here.
