I thought it would be better to save it for when they have kids themselves or even if they want to get back into it themselves later.
All the sets that were still together we semi-disassembled and put in large freezer bags to keep the pieces together. Mini-figs were put into 1 bin and everything else in the others.
Their Lego included all the Lego I had growing up and it was fun giving it to them when they were old enough (probably too young thinking back). Digging through the bin again after 20+ years was awesome for me too.
I know I've regretted not having some of the toys I had when I was a kid so I'm glad my parents hung on to my Lego for me.
If you have the storage room and don't really need the money, I say store it.

Agree with that. I'm thankful my parents kept my old Lego as now I can introduce my kids to those sets and tell them stories of what Lego used to be like.
