What should I do with my parents' old wedding presents?

My parents married about 80 years ago. My Mom died about 50 years ago and my Dad about 20.
I recently found a couple of boxes my Dad left at my home ~35 years ago when he downsized. Most everything is in very good shape. For example, there are monogrammed towels that were clearly a nice wedding gift from a friend or relative. My kids don’t want them – nor do they have the space. There are no relatives that would want them.
What should I do with them? Donate? Use them as towels, or rags? Do I put them back in the box and let my kids worry about them? They are 80 years old! That seems special to me. (Do I have a problem?)
What would you do?
