For example, when I walk barefoot om my room’s wooden floor, it feels colder than walking on the carpet in the same room. Or a glass feels cooler than say a piece of bread in the same environment. Why is this?

Materials such as metal are great conductors of heat. The reason these materials feel colder to the touch is because when you touch them, the material absorbs the heat from your hand which quickly goes through the surface of the material, leaving it feeling colder.
