A simple example of radiation is to turn on a light-bulb, and bring your hand close to it. The closer your hand gets, you begin to feel the heat from the light bulb. This is radiated heat energy. As soon as you turn on the light-bulb, even before you bring your hand close to it, you SEE it, because of the electromagnetic radiation in the VISIBLE range that leaves it.

Another example of radiation can be a lava lamp. Radiation is the whole reason how a lava lamp works.

Also there is ultraviolet, visible, infrared, gamma, microwave, X, alpha, beta, etc.
