ClassX Video Lessons Youtube Channel Vooks Storybooks Animated Read Aloud Kids Book: 14 Animals That Are Not An Octopus!
Hello, my little friend! Today, we’re going to have some fun learning about animals. We will look at 14 different animals, and guess what? None of them are an octopus! Let’s find out which animals we have here.
First, we see a flamingo. It’s pink and stands on one leg. Definitely not an octopus!
Next, there’s a fox with a bushy tail. No octopus here!
Look at this snail with its shell. It’s slow and not an octopus.
Here comes a snake. It slithers on the ground, but it’s not an octopus.
We also have a camel with humps on its back. No octopus in sight!
And here’s an ostrich. It’s a big bird that can’t fly. Not an octopus!
Now, we see a rhino. It has a big horn, but it’s not an octopus.
This is a squid. It looks a bit like an octopus but isn’t one!
Here’s a squirrel. It loves to climb trees. No octopus here!
Look at this frog. It jumps high, but it’s not an octopus.
And here’s a giraffe with a long neck. Definitely not an octopus!
We also have a monkey. It swings from trees, but it’s not an octopus.
Here’s a praying mantis. It looks like it’s praying, but it’s not an octopus.
Finally, we see a porcupine with lots of spikes. But wait, could it be…
Surprise! The porcupine is actually an octopus in disguise! In fact, all the animals were octopuses pretending to be something else. They had eight arms and two eyes all along!
Wasn’t that funny? Now you know how to spot an octopus, even when it’s pretending to be another animal. Keep an eye out for those eight arms and two eyes!
Did you know that octopuses are very smart? They can change colors and even squeeze into tiny spaces. They’re amazing creatures!
Thanks for learning with me today. I hope you had fun discovering which animals were not an octopus!
Animal Detective Game: Let’s play a game where you become an animal detective! Look around your home or classroom and find objects or toys that remind you of the animals we talked about. Can you find something pink like a flamingo or something with a long neck like a giraffe? Share what you find with your friends and explain why it reminds you of that animal.
Create Your Own Disguise: Just like the octopus disguised itself as other animals, let’s create our own animal disguises! Use paper, crayons, and other craft materials to make a mask or costume of your favorite animal from the story. Once you’re done, show your disguise to the class and see if they can guess which animal you are pretending to be.
Octopus Observation: Next time you visit an aquarium or watch a video about sea creatures, pay close attention to the octopus. How does it move? What colors can it change into? Try drawing a picture of an octopus and label its eight arms and two eyes. Share your drawing with your family and tell them what you learned about these amazing creatures.
Here’s a sanitized version of the transcript:

I know that you’re a smart kid, so you should know the difference between an animal that’s not an octopus and an octopus. Now it’s time to find out about 14 animals that are definitely not an octopus.
[Music]
Here are 14 animals I found. There are many animals here, but I am sure of one thing: none of these animals are an octopus.
[Music]
This flamingo is definitely not an octopus. And this couldn’t be an octopus because it is a fox. Here comes a snail that is certainly not an octopus.
[Music]
Is this an octopus? No, it’s just a little snake. No octopus here, just a camel. And this is for sure an ostrich—nothing else.
[Music]
Here is a rhino; it’s not an octopus either. And this is just a squid—definitely a squid. I am very sure this is a regular squirrel and not an octopus.
[Music]
And here is a frog—definitely just a frog. This isn’t an octopus; it’s a giraffe. And this is totally a monkey, not an octopus.
[Music]
See this praying mantis? I’m positive it’s not an octopus. And this porcupine—actually, this porcupine looks a little funny. I think it might be…
[Music]
It is! It is an octopus! In fact, all of the animals were an octopus in disguise. Go back and look for eight arms and two eyes.
[Music]
Oh, you’re so funny! Now the flamingo—that’s a good one. I knew it was an octopus all along. All the bodies had eyes, and they blinked, but it was so funny because instead of people, they were animals.
