I tell ya, that head-grab spans all continents and cultures.
They ALL do it, but they don't just do it to everyone. You have to be 'in the circle". You don't get a head-grab if they don't trust you. You never see it done to a stranger. Though i suspect that for the under-4 set, much of it has less to do with secrecy as simply the need not to fall over. They topple so easily and with little warning.
It really is an endearing thing, and the fact that they outgrow it before you know it makes it just the more special.
