Carpet bombing is a large aerial bombing done in a progressive manner to inflict damage in every part of a selected area of land. The phrase evokes the image of explosions completely covering an area, in the same way that a carpet covers a floor. Carpet bombing is usually achieved by dropping many unguided bombs.
Here is a video of of A-26 Invader Carpet Bomb showcased at Randolph Air Force Base in an Air Show in San Antonio, Texas (USA) in 2009.
