I personally would phrase it as "What kind of seasonal activities do you enjoy?" OR "What kind of seasonal activities do you enjoy doing?"

Hello. You could say 'engage in seasonal activities' or 'explore seasonal activities'. If you want to use 'occupy yourself with seasonal activities', that's correct too. Seasonal activities include swimming in the summer, skiing in the winter, but also things like: raking dry leaves off the grass in the fall, going shopping for Christmas presents, dyeing eggs for Easter. I hope this helps.

Hi (from my non-native perspective): "seasonal activities" can be of different kinds: -- it can be working in a farm rather than practicing a sport. So I personally would talk about a specific activity and clear out it's "seasonal", for example: - I PRACTICE this seasonal sport -- eg I practice snorkeling but only seasonally - I WORK as a seasonal worker in agriculture - I ATTEND a seasonal course of languages That's how I see the issue. Bye

"Seasonal activities" strikes me as a rather awkward phrase. If I had to use it, I'd say "take part in seasonal activities".
