The Sun does nothing except shine on the Earth, hitting the Equator approximately directly from above. It is the tilting of the Earth on its axis, as it orbits round the Sun, that causes the seasons. For instance: when the northern hemisphere tilts towards the Sun, it is Summer in the northern hemisphere and Winter in the Southern Hemisphere. Eventually, the southern hemisphere has its turn of tilting towards the Sun, and it is Summer in the southern hemisphere and Winter in the northern hemisphere.

How does the tilted axis make seasons?

As the Earth travels in its yearly orbit around the sun, in some seasons the axial tilt will cause the northern hemisphere to be tilted toward the sun while the southern hemisphere is tilted away from the sun, and in other seasons it is the opposite. Whichever hemisphere tilts toward the sun gets more sunlight and is therefore warmer.
