Ah, good question -- I should look at these two lapbook offerings from a different perspective! If you only have part of one morning to spend on St. Patrick's Day, you might actually enjoy the Fold-and-Learn from FIAR. If, however, you have more time and interest in studying this amazing Saint, you might want to do the one from Hands of a Child. How's that? 
You can print as many copies of the lapbook materials as you need. You don't have to buy a download for each child. For the Hands of a Child material, I spent an hour printing out each item on different sheets of colored paper so that we would end up with a nice looking product at the end. Lots of greens!
I think we will spend a week making the lapbooks (an hour to one and one-half hours each day maybe?), including exploring recommended websites and watching our dvd.
You can certainly save a copy of the PDF file once it is downloaded and use it as many times as you like in future.

Oh, my. . .did you know that these people, Hands of a Child, have 151 lapbook products for sale at homeschoolestore! This is amazing. . .I feel a new curriculum addiction coming on! 
I'm seeing several available on topics that I know are coming up for us in the next few months. This is great, because I'm not very creative with lapbooks and notebooking. Last year I had wanted to do a St. Patrick lapbook, and had printed out a few cool things. But then I was stumped at what was most important, how to organize it all into graphic organizers, etc. I wasted some time on it and then gave up. I think that's why I'm so excited to find this stuff available. . .there's hope for me after all! LOL

If you visit their site directly you can download samples of nearly all of those titles too. Worth the time!

I just posted photos of my youngest son, Quinn's, Irish/St. Patrick lapbook this past weekend on my blog. I created a number of graphics for it. You can find them at:
http://dani3d.com/lapbook/
They are very large (zipped) PSD files...some can be edited to personalize. This is preK stuff. To view them first you can go to:

Dani, your lapbooks are very inspirational! They are so wonderfully done! Just having started to lapbook/notebook, I borrowed some of your ideas. Thanks so much for sharing this information with us. I certainly appreciate it.
