So adorable, but can you imagine what it would be like to grow up with a cabbage for a head?

Good. I guess, it would make me even more obnoxious, according to the video. I'm not a mother or a father, so am not sure, but maybe the same folklore exists around the world. The cabbage is supposed to pull toxins from the babies, but do not eat the cabbage after using it this way, since it is full of bad stuff :) . Japanese mommies are well-informed and were just goofing on the folklore I think. They network like mad and now we have a clash between older women, who say stuff like, bundle the baby up and always put socks on him/her, and younger ones who are against those ideas. Glad you liked it.
