Common year starting on Tuesday facts for kids

Kids Encyclopedia Facts

A common year starting on Tuesday is a special kind of year. It has exactly 365 days, unlike a leap year which has 366. This type of year begins on a Tuesday, January 1st, and also ends on a Tuesday, December 31st.

The most recent common year that started on a Tuesday was 2019. The next one will be 2030. In the older Julian calendar, years like 2025 and 2031 are common years starting on Tuesday.

A common year starting on Tuesday always has two Friday the 13ths. These usually happen in September and December. Leap years starting on Monday also have two Friday the 13ths.

Interestingly, the longest time without a Friday the 13th is 14 months. This period runs from July of the year before a common year starting on Tuesday, until September of that common year. Leap years starting on Saturday have a similar long period without a Friday the 13th.

In a common year starting on Tuesday, three months begin on a weekend day: June, September, and December.
