We introduce the notion of families of $n$-marked, smooth, rational tropical curves over smooth tropical varieties and establish a one-to-one correspondence between (equivalence classes of) these families and morphisms from smooth tropical varieties into the moduli space of $n$-marked, abstract, rational, tropical curves ${{\mathcal{M}}_{n}}$.
