Lamps of various kinds (ceiling lamps, standard lamps, desk lamps, table lamps, etc.); also, candles, torches, TV and (most) computer screens, LEDs (Light Emitting Diodes; e.g. the power light on a TV or computer), and anything that gets hot enough to glow, so the heating elements of electric cookers and ovens and some electric heaters also fit into this category.
You could include luminous objects like the luminous (sometimes radioactive) paint on the hands of some analogue clocks.
Oh, and of course the Sun as well - it probably provides drastically more light than any other source in most homes. I guess other stars also contribute, but not so much that you'd notice. Although whether these celestial objects even count as answers to your question depends on exactly what you mean by 'give light in the home.'
I can't think of any others. Hope this helps :)

What are the luminous objects?
Sun stars fire fireworks that sort of stuff
Are candles and campfire luminous objects?
Yes because they emit or give off light
Why do we see things?
Because light reflects off objects
What is the best obsevation of refration of light?
The best observation of refraction of light is by observing objects that are in water. By observing objects that are in water, the objects usually appear as if they are not straight.
What are the icy objects that light up the light sky?
comets.
How can you see an object which does not give out light?
Objects which do not give out light can still reflect light.
Why can you see a cup even though it does not give off light?
Objects that don't give off light - like a cup - reflect incoming light.
Are satellites luminous or non-luminous?
Non-luminous. Objects which produce light of their own or give out or emit their own light are called luminous objects. Objects which do not produce light of their own, on the other hand, are called non-luminous objects. Luminous objects are objects like stars, sun and other celestial bodies which give out their own light. Objects surrounding us are not such light emitting objects. Therefore, we are surrounded by non-luminous objects.
Characteristics of non luminous?
Objects that do not emit or give out light or energy of their own are referred to as non-luminous objects.
Luminouse objects produce what kind of light?
Luminous objects usually give out the light that they make on their own. An example of a luminous object is a star or an LED lamp.
What objects in space give out ultra-violet light rays?
The obvious answer is "Stars".
How you are able to see objects that do not give off light?
An object that does not give off light on itself is still able to reflect incoming light. This is the case with most objects arount you that you see, precisely, because they receive light from the Sun or from some lamp.
What are the luminous objects?
Sun stars fire fireworks that sort of stuff
Are candles and campfire luminous objects?
Yes because they emit or give off light
Which material will give straight lines when light passes through it?
Transparent objects allow light to pass through them in straight lines
What kind of objects light passes though?
Transparent objects are the sorts of objects that light passes through. Translucent objects allow the partial transmission of light. Opaque objects prevent the transmission of light.
Give 2 physical evidences that light travels in straight line?
1. You cannot see objects that are behind objects you have clear vision of. 2. Any object behind a light source is invisible
