Well, my daughter was crossing guard back in the day {but we had no signals, probably why we had cops a lot...}. I think they do it to make the kids presence more known. And, to help guide the kids.
But, unfortunately, they also had to be OSHA {?} and the kids were told to hold the signs a different way. To me, less visible. One morning, I saw this little girl, safe in the crosswalk with the signs 'down' by the crossing guards almost get hit by a car, driven by a mother who was totally oblivious. I thought I was going to see this girl flattened, the mother never stopped. I think she came thisclose to her. Seriously.
Oh how cool about the cats liking water!!! I wish mine did.
