Freestanding sign post design

I’ve been asked to build a freestanding sign post and signs for a school fair. There will be multiple signs (maybe 5 or so) on a 4×4 post pointing the way to the various games and activities. The sign will be inside the school so no worries about wind blowing over the sign but lots of people and kids milling around.

Any recommendations on a good design? that is likely not to tip over easily or create a tipping hazard?

My first thought was something like a big coat rack with legs:

But found two other photos on the web that might work.

Any other ideas??
