Why did Christmas day and New Year's Day not fall on the same day in 1945?

New Year's Day and Christmas Day of the same year never fall on the same day. The 1st of January 1945 was on a Monday and the 25th of December 1945 was on a Tuesday. That is completely normal. A week after Christmas Day is New Year's Day, but that is New Year's Day of the following year. So Christmas Day 1945 would have been on the same day of the week as New Year's Day 1946, the next year. In the same way, Christmas Day 1944 and New Year's Day 1945 were on the same day of the week.

Why did April 18 fall on Sunday twice between 1934 and 1945 when it didn't fall on Wednesday between these two years?
The Wednesday was skipped over due to the leap year in 1940. It was on a Tuesday in 1939. As 1940 was a leap year, it skipped over the Wednesday, and it was on a Thursday. It was not until 1945 that Wednesday came round again. Between 1934 and 1945 is an 11 year gap. That length of time without a date occurring on the same day is very common. A date happens on the same day again every 5, 6 or 11 years. It depends on how the leap years fall in the period.
In the next 9 years will Christmas and Hanukkah fall on the same day?

Is Wednesday the best day for Christmas to fall on?
It doesn't matter. Christmas Day is not influenced by the day of the week it is on. It always feels the same, no matter what day of the week it is on. So whether it is on a weekday or a weekend, there is no difference. So no day is best for Christmas Day to fall on.
In what year did Christmas day and New Year Day fall in the same year?
Every year. Jan.1 and Dec. 25Improved Answer:Christmas Day and New Year ALWAYS fall into the same year, IF you think in terms of the Gregorian calender, but FOR those who continue to use the Julian calendar or its equivalents thus celebrate December 25 and January 6 on what for the majority of the world is January 7 and January 19, which has the result, that Christmas Day and New Year would NOT fall within the same year, due to the overlap.Note: Parts of my answer where taken from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia > Article: ChristmasTheWiseToddSharpe
Why does Christmas always fall on Thursday in the leap year halfway between two odd-numbered years with Christmas on Sunday?
There is a pattern in the way days and dates fall. If Christmas Day is on a Sunday 3 years before a leap year, then it will always follow that the Christmas Days in the next years are a Monday, a Tuesday, and for the leap year Wednesday will be skipped and Christmas Day will be on a Thursday. Follow on for another 3 years and you get Friday, Saturday and Sunday. Leap years are always even, so if it is 3 years before a leap year, then the first year that the Sunday is on has to be odd, as will the year 3 years after a leap year. These patterns are common and you could look at other specific combinations of dates and days in the same way and find recurring patterns there too.
