To start, you will want to print and laminate the free printable below. Then cut out the octopus bodies. Finally, use a hole punch to make 8 holes on top of the white circle designated spot.

Then put out pipe cleaners for your student. They will match the color of the octopus body with the correct colored pipe cleaner and twist the edge around the leg.
