Seasonal Activities to Try This Year (That Aren't Just Holidays)

Jordan Park

Seasons change, and so should your activities. But you don't need a holiday to celebrate the time of year—you just need activities that match the mood and energy of each season.

Here are seasonal activities to try this year that celebrate the moment without requiring a calendar holiday.

1. Autumn Craft Session

Autumn is perfect for cozy, indoor activities. Our Autumn Craft guide helps you create seasonal crafts that celebrate the changing leaves, cooler weather, and the feeling of settling in. It's perfect for a solo afternoon or a small gathering with friends.

2. Winter Reflection Activity

Winter is a time for slowing down and reflecting. Our Winter Reflection guide helps you take stock of the year, process what's happened, and set intentions for what's ahead. It's meditative, it's meaningful, and it's perfect for the quieter energy of winter.

3. New Year Planning (But Make It Meaningful)

New Year doesn't have to be about resolutions you'll forget by February. Our New Year Activity guide helps you reflect on the past year and set intentions for the new one in a way that feels authentic and sustainable. It's about reflection, not just resolution.

4. Create Seasonal Tea Blends

Tea is perfect for any season, but you can make it seasonal. Our DIY Tea guide helps you create tea blends that match the season—warming spices for winter, fresh herbs for summer, cozy flavors for autumn. It's a way to mark the time of year and create something you can enjoy all season long.

5. Start a Seasonal Memory Box

Create a memory box for each season, collecting moments, objects, and memories that capture the time of year. Our Memory Box guide helps you create a physical space for the things that matter. It's a way to mark time and remember what each season felt like.

Why Seasonal Activities Matter

Seasonal activities matter because they:

  • Help you be present: They connect you to the time of year you're actually in
  • Create rhythm: They give you something to look forward to as seasons change
  • Are meaningful: They celebrate the moment without requiring a holiday
  • Are flexible: You can adapt them to your schedule and preferences

The secret? Let the season guide your activities, not the calendar.
