Learning science is important to children in the early childhood stage because it helps develop their physical, emotional, mental, social and intellectual aspects. The purposes of this research were 1) to create and test the quality of learning experience plans by using the Inquiry Method (5E) for kindergarten 2 students at Anuban Samsen School (The Government Lottery Office Support) and 2) to create and test the quality of science skill competency assessment form for kindergarten 2 students at Anuban Samsen School (The Government Lottery Office Support). The target group for this study was 5 specialists in early childhood education. Research tools include learning experience plans by using the Inquiry Method (5E) and science skill competency assessment form. Mean, standard deviation (S.D.), index of item–objective congruence (IOC) and Interquartile Range (IR) were used to analyze the data. The results showed that 1) the quality of learning experience plans by using the Inquiry Method (5E) was the highest quality of suitability, ( = 4.99, S.D. = 0.02, IR = 0.00), and 2) the index of the item–objective congruence (IOC) of Science skill competency assessment was between 0.60 and 1.00. Each of the items of Science skill competency assessment passed all the criteria of IOC.
