Tiki torch

A tiki torch is like a big stick with fire on top that people use in their yards or at parties to make it look cool and to keep mosquitoes away. The stick part is usually made of bamboo, and there's a container at the top that holds a liquid fuel like oil. You light the fuel on fire, and it makes a nice bright flame that you can see in the dark. Some tiki torches also have decorations on them like little statues or shells to make them look super fun. But remember, fire is hot and dangerous. So don't touch the flame, and make sure to keep it away from anything that could catch on fire.
