Alright, imagine you have a really long slide at the playground. Normally, when you slide down, you feel some bumps and you slow down because of friction. This is like electricity in regular wires; it has to push through and gets slowed down by resistance.
Now, imagine a super-duper magical slide that is completely smooth, with no bumps at all. When you slide down, you don't slow down at all, and you can go really, really fast. This is what happens with electricity in superconductors. In these special materials, electricity can flow without any resistance, meaning it doesn't get slowed down and there's no energy lost as heat.
Superconductors only work when they are really, really cold, colder than ice cream! When they get this cold, they can do amazing things, like making super strong magnets that can float in the air.
