The problem in this study is the need for educators to assess critical and creative thinking instruments in STEAM-based thematic learning. This study aims to produce critical and creative thinking assessment instruments in STEAM-based thematic learning. The type of this research was Research and Development (R&D) with a sample of 69 elementary students. Testing the feasibility of the instruments developed in this study used validity tests, reliability tests, differential power tests and difficulty level tests. The instruments developed were 12 critical thinking skills instruments and 12 creative thinking ability instruments. The results of the product feasibility test obtained 11 critical thinking instruments and 10 creative thinking instruments which are valid, reliable, have differential power and an appropriate level of difficulty.
