Abstract
Track assemblies and track assembly kits for children's ride-on vehicles, as well as children's ride-on vehicle systems, according to the present disclosure are configured for assembly and disassembly of a track assembly. Track assemblies may include elongate rail members, couplers that are configured to couple together two elongate rail members, and optionally tie members that include one or more couplers. Generally, track assemblies comprise a left rail (including longitudinally aligned elongate rail members) and a right rail (including longitudinally aligned elongate rail members) in a spaced-apart and parallel relationship. Elongate rail members, couplers, and/or tie members are configured to releasably and repeatedly couple together. In the disassembled state, the component parts may be stored and/or shipped compactly. In the assembled state, the track assembly may define a track path, and the track assembly may be configured to guide the children's ride-on vehicle along the track path.
