Meet a curious octopus with a big round head, wide friendly eyes, and eight tentacles swirling off in every direction, each one lined with neat rows of round suckers. A few small bubbles drift nearby to set the scene under the sea. The large head and bold tentacles give little hands plenty of open space, while the rows of suckers add fun detail for anyone who likes to slow down and fill in tiny circles. Octopuses are famously clever — they can change color in an instant, squeeze through tiny gaps, and have three hearts pumping blue blood. That color-changing trick means you can pick absolutely any shade you like and still be accurate. Try red, purple, or even a rainbow of tentacles. Print it on US Letter or A4 and give this eight-armed thinker a personality all your own.

Coloring Tips

  • Head and arms first — fill the big head and tentacles before dotting in the small round suckers.
  • Any color counts — octopuses change color, so red, purple, or rainbow arms are all correct.
  • Pop the suckers — use a slightly lighter shade for the round suckers so each row stands out.

Frequently asked questions

How many tentacles should I color?
Eight — an octopus always has eight arms, and you can give each one a different curl and color if you like.
Can an octopus really be any color?
Pretty much. Octopuses change their skin color to hide and communicate, so whatever shades you choose can be true to life.
