I have seen turnkeys that inside them simulate a small ship in the waves of the sea with 2 liquids that don't unite like water and oil (but they aren't the componets). In the bottom is one liquid, in the top the another and in the middle the small ship. You can shake the mix and create much bubbles but in a while there are the 2 liquids with their evident border between them.
Which are the materials of the 2 liquids and the ship? wher can i buy them? they have to be non-toxic products.

Use water, mineral oil, and make the ship form wood. You may have to weight the ship to keep it from floating in the mineral oil. I suggest mineral oil because it is non-toxic and clear.

Water and mineral oil is a good answer, but you might want to add a blue water soluble dye so that the water looks more like the sea and the division between the 2 layers is more obvious.
