Neon lamp

A neon lamp is like a tiny little light bulb that is filled with a special gas called neon. When you plug it in, a small electric current runs through the gas and makes it glow in a bright and beautiful way. It's kind of like magic! You might see neon lamps out in the world at cool stores or restaurants, where they're used to make signs that show people where to go or what to buy. And if you ever see one, you can think about how it works like a big, fancy, grown-up night light!
