Sticker charts/behavior sheets and positive rewards

Sunshine's therapist suggested, after hearing about the... awesome (:-/) choices we've been getting, a reward chart. :( = not awesome, :-| = meh, and :-) = awesome and after 2 weeks, if either child get's enough :-) faces they earn "a spaceship to the moon" (a special trip or activity). Great in theory.
Fe is super excited about earning a trip to Chuck'e'Cheeses and is working diligently to be sure she gets to go. She feels proud every time she gets a "happy face "and feels less proud of herself as the happy face gets less smiley.
Sunshine however, is having a hard time with everything. The goal was to encourage positive behavior and discourage negative behavior. By making the smile chart of what to do/ what nor to do, we have given Sunshine a checklist of a different sort... It's called: "How To Prove I Am a BAD KID and You Should Abandon Me". Sunshine's goal is to see how many :-(s she can get.
