Naruto is about Naruto's early days as a ninja, learning the ropes. Shippuden is a time skip, showing him as a teen fighting bigger baddies!
To put it bluntly, Naruto is kid ninja antics; Shippuden is teen ninja drama and epicness.
As someone who watched both, Naruto focuses on Naruto's childhood and training. Shippuden covers his teenage years and more intense story arcs.
