No, learning how to juggle will not have a direct effect on a child's fluency. It might make him feel more competent or special if he can accomplish juggling, which might influence self-esteem, but juggling itself will not directly influence fluency. And regarding having clinicians and family members try to learn how to juggle - it will demonstrate to them some of the challenges the child faces in learning new skills - not an easy task.
