They listen to preaching, read the Bible or other books or they can seek the Truth or be inspired by God. Very few are struck down by Jesus like St Paul. And perhaps there more ways to learn to believe.
Believing is a process and we grow in our belief and love of God.
For children, including infants, it is the parents responsibility to teach their children about God and they too can grow in their belief in God. Or they can reject a belief in God
You are talking about an intellectual belief...That's not the belief of salvation...Belief in God/Jesus is not a lifelong endeavor...It's a one time deal...Belief in Jesus is a trust that you know he is your Saviour and will get you to heaven...

πιστεύω

For infants, they do not have personal sins, yet they receive forgiveness of original sin passed down from Adam.
So what, do they get their original sin back when they are a little older, when the men have to toil to make a living and the women go thru pain during childbirth???
Original sin is never taught in Scripture.
Its a made up concept by the Catholic church for which they then created the solution, water baptism.
Nice racket there.
