Sound energy is created when
air or water causes vibrations in
an object. The waves of energy
are then heard by our ears. This
energy can be used to do
things, like make music or
power microphones.
Light energy is created when
something produces light. Light
travels in waves and carries
energy with it. This energy can
be used to do things, like help
us see things in the dark and
help plants grow.
Heat energy is when something
hot touches something colder.
The hot thing becomes cooler
and the cold thing hotter until
have the same temperature.
The transfer of heat can be
used to do things like warm up
food or power engines. 
Electrical energy is the flow of
tiny particles called electrons
and protons. People have
learned how to harness the
electrical current into wires
and  power devices like light
bulbs, washing machines, and
electronic devices.
Energy is the ability of something to do work
and comes in many different forms.
