sit ups are pretty much the standard in this, but if you want to firm up all the muscles, like the external and internal obliques, use a twist motion, so start on the ground flat, and as you sit up turn 90 degrees either way, and then do the other side for the next sit up, this will ensure that both sides and your rectus abdominus get strength and inevitably enlarge.

This area you are talking about is best built up with overall mass and weight gaining.
Its always good to do lower abdomen workouts, and especially leg workouts (squats), but taking a lot of protein is your key here.
get a gram of protein whey PER pound of body weight. (if you weigh 120 lbs, take 120 g’s of protein whey per day)
A good solid workout schedule is important, as is diet.

do hanging leg raises on a chinup bar. that works the whole ab area as wel but hits the lower abs hard.
