“I’m more neurotic than Phil, but I screw things up just as much as he does,” the actor, 42, reveals in Redbook‘s September issue.

“At this stage, my parenting consists of being a pit-crew member, where I step in and I wash and feed.”

Earlier this year, Burrell and his wife Holly welcomed their first child, 6-month-old daughter Frances, through adoption and according to the doting dad, the addition has taken their relationship to a whole new level.

It’s not always easy to get your kids to read. But a bit of encouragement always helps!

If your little ones are starting to face the end-of-summer blues, consider signing them up for the National Learn-to-Read Challenge, a six-week program that starts today, and is designed to keep kids reading through the first days of school.

“We want people to begin the journey to becoming great readers,” former PBS personality and campaign spokesperson Miss Lori tells PEOPLE Moms & Babies. “If you can step into the beginning of the school year on a solid foot, it will really help your child as time goes on.”

The challenge, sponsored by Reading Eggs, hopes to reach 50,000 families by Sept. 30.
