Actor Neil Patrick Harris, known for his role in How I Met Your Mother, made his debut on TikTok, enlisting the help of his 13-year-old twins, daughter Harper Grace and son Gideon Scott. The twins, whom he shares with his husband David Burtka, showed reluctance in a video announcement as Harris excitedly revealed his new venture on the social media platform.

The video captured Gideon correcting his father's pronunciation of TikTok and Harper displaying uncertainty through her facial expressions. Despite the lukewarm reaction from his children, fans showed support for Harris in the comments section. In the video, Harris mentioned using Gen Z lingo and humorously received a warning from Gideon about his choice of words.

In an exclusive interview with PEOPLE, Harris and his husband discussed their parenting style and being considered the coolest parents among their children's friends. While the kids have a busy school life, the couple aims to create a welcoming environment at home.

Prior to joining TikTok, the Burtka-Harris family shared holiday greetings on Instagram, showcasing their festive spirit. As Harris embarks on his TikTok journey, his children may not be fully on board, but the actor is sure to bring his signature humor and charm to the platform.
