Kindergarten is where kids first decide which of two numbers is bigger. They already know that five grapes is more than two grapes. The new step is writing a symbol that says so.
The symbols are the hard part. Many five year olds mix up < and > for months, even when they know which number is larger. That is normal. The sign is only a pointer, and the habit takes time to stick.
Start with Comparing numbers to 10 at the easy level. The two numbers sit far apart, like 2 and 9, so your child can see the answer before worrying about the sign. Move to the harder level once close pairs like 6 and 7 feel easy. Equal pairs appear too, and they are a nice surprise for kids who assume one number always wins.
Keep a row of five or six boxes as one sitting. If your child hesitates, line up that many blocks for each number and look at which line is longer. When a whole sheet is right without blocks, they are ready for numbers to 100 in Grade 1.
