I am a Mexican and we celebrate Christmas from Dec 24- Jan 6. We just celebrate normal Christmas and then kings day (I call it Wiseman day cause it's a better translation) and we keep our Christmas decorations well into January. In Mexico, they come down on Jan 6. To some people, Feb 2 also counts as Christmas. We have kings bread and hot cocoa on Jan 6 and children get presents from the wise men (double Christmas LoL) In the bread there is a baby Jesus and whoever gets it has to invite everyone present for tamales and coffee/ hot cocoa/ champuriΓ±o.

The Russian Xmas is on January 7th because it how the day falls. It is different for every country.
All Christians believe that Jesus is "The Savior". They also belive that Jesus was born in Christmas and died in Easter. You will ask then why are there 2 different dates for each celebration? The answer is that: 1. Christmas is on 25th of Dec and all Christians agree on it. The reason why some celebrate it on the 7th of Jan is because long time ago, there were a group of people who pray for the Sun. They had a celebration on the 7th of Jan and there were complications so that's why Christmas's date changed for some(however, they all know when is the real Christmas). 2. For Easter, there are the eastern and the western Christians and each have different dates because long time ago people either counted the days by looking at the sun or by looking at the moon. So, one group counted on the sun and the other group counted on the moon which made the dates different many times. it is also the reason why sometimes both groups celebrate Easter on the same day.
