Sims 2 seasons is a great expansion pack. Besides getting some new clothes and items, you can...
Now put uneaten food into the refrigerator as leftovers and they will keep forever. You can now go fishing which allows you to eat the fish you have caught. You can now garden and harvest (or sell) the produce. You can either stock the refrigerator with the produce or you can put it in a juicer and make tomato juice, apple juice, etc... And if your Sim plants to much they might turn into a plant Sim! It turns them green and the only things they need are sun, water, and love. However, if your Sim does turn into a plant sim and you don't want them to, you can call the garden club and by a potion.
Instead of staying sunny all the time, it changes through all four seasons. It can now rain, hail, and snow. And if the snow gets thick enough your Sims can play in it. (snow angels, snowball fights, snowmen building) and sometimes while it's snowing, a little penguin will wattle around your yard.
Your sims also now have temperatures. If you're Sim is outside in the cold to long they will freeze, I believe they can actually die this way if there are no Sims around to help. If they get really cold you can have them take a shower which will warm them up. And if they get to hot (via outside to long in summer or jumping on the bed), you can have them drink water from the sink to cool them down.
I think that's about it. I might have left out a few things but those are the main ones. Hope that helps!
P.S You may want to uninstall apartment life before you install seasons. After seasons is installed, you can reinstall apartment life.
