I always try to keep a few toys around that people can play with while still trying to have a conversation.
Some people call them stimulation or sensory toys, but overall I find that most people appreciate something to do with their hands when they are trying to navigate a difficult conversation, even if they can get by without the extra sensory input.
Adults tend to appreciate them just as much as children actually. And since you can hear me giggle while trying to take the video, clearly I find them pretty awesome too!
