Glycerol is the non-chemical name for glycerine. It's an over-the-counter gooey liquid you can get at most drug stores.
Potassium permanganate is a very common pool fertilizer that you can purchase at some large 'mart' stores, and can always find at any pool store, in a black roughly powdered form.
Glycerine is pretty safe. In fact, there are quite a few common uses for it, including soap, lotion, and even as a laxative.
Potassium permanganate is a strong oxidizer, and therefore needs to be kept away from ignition sources. (Unless, of course, you're using it for one.)

Reaction of Potassium Permanganate and Glycerine Addition of glycerin to a pile of potassium permanganate produces white smoke and a purple flame. The reaction is not instantaneous, but depends on the fineness of the solid crystals. Equation: 14 KMnO4 + 4 C3H5(OH)3 --> 7 K2CO3 + 7 Mn2O3 + 5 CO2 + 16 H2O Reference B. Z. Shakhashiri, "Chemical Demonstrations", Vol. 1, The University of Wisconsin Press, Madison ,Wisconsin, (1983) p. 83. See the Web Links page for a cool video of the reaction!

What chemicals does potassium react with?
Potassium easily reacts with oxygen, and many oxidizing agents like halogens, chlorates, and nitrates. Potassium reacts with all acids, such as acetic or hydrochloric acid to form a potassium salt and hydrogen gas. Potassium will also react with alcohols. One of the most interesting reactions only takes place in a vacuum. When potassium is placed on a sheet of paper, it will actually rip the oxygen atoms out of the paper and char it black. However, potassium cannot react with ice, as it needs a liquid medium to proceed.
