I'm quite intrigued that the first link has one scientist wanting to make the poor creature move (and it's not really an octopus...). I also think it's interesting listening to their classification -It's this because of this...

In this video, the scientists talk about the size of the creatures -and the red laser dots are hard to see (they're at the top of the video!). The way it swims is really beautiful (and very unscientific term!)
This one is truly fantastic too! http://www.nautiluslive.org/video/2014/06/27/visit-rare-vampire-squid
And yes way more... look yourself! These are all part of a mission on right now (I've been watching the live feed too). You can find photos and videos here: http://www.nautiluslive.org/photos-videos
Why not try to get the children doing their observations first -what can they see and then what do they think about that... Rather than I see an octopus... (which it might not be!), I see long legs that I think might be tentacles. I can also see a big oval head. These clues make me think it might be an octopus or a squid.
