This article deals with the results of a long-term four-year study of the problem of children’s choice of the first year of life in the environment of various vital areas of knowledge of the immediate surrounding. The collected, analyzed, generalized facts of the infants’ choice testify their active self-realization in the process of cognitive selective actions. It has been found that the parents’ and teachers’ insufficient understanding of children’s natural rights of their choice leads to the suspension of such actions. As a result, there is a delay in the timely mental, sensory, physical development of infants. It was found that the full realization of children’s reasonable choices is possible in conditions of adult recognition of infants’ subjectivity in interaction with them. The authors established that infants show fundamentally important signs of subjectivity in contrast to the actions in the status of the object of interaction, which is constantly imposed on him by adults in the process of choosing. Using demonstrations of infant’s subjectivity, it is possible and necessary to provide them with conditions for its further development and improvement in reasonable selective activities.
