This study aims to describe the use of Scivlab in developing critical thinking skills of elementary school students on the material of changes in the state of matter. The method used in this study is design-based research. The stages discussed in this study are the development stages. The results of the validity of the science virtual laboratory media developed in the very good category from the aspects of language, software engineering, and visual display. The validity of the material with aspects of material relevance, material organization, evaluation, and language obtained an average value of very good. In this study, a limited trial was also conducted in the Laboratory elementary school, the results showed that the Scivlab developed could be used well in learning in elementary schools.
