Well it depends on whether you are overweight or not. If there is a lot of fat around the area, then it is best to start with cardio based exercises. This includes running, dancing, cycling, swimming, jogging, etc. I.E. anything that makes you sweat. This can help to burn the fat around the area.
You do not want to focus solely on cardio, because even if you are slim, then you will develop a layer a thin layer of fat around your muscles. You get rid of this by doing weight based exercises. Deadlifts are effective. But also try using the various machines available around a gym. If you do not have access to a gym, then simple crunches and sit ups can be effective to a point, but weight based gym equipment that focuses on the abdomen is most effective.
Also be sure to focus on diet. Half of your plate should be fruit and vegetables. A pack of game card sized amount of protein (eggs, chicken, turkey, beef, lamb, beans, etc) and the rest should be carbs like wholegrain pasta or rice, and a small amount of fat (healthy fats such as olive oil are better than butter).
In short: a good mix of weight training and cardio, along with a healthy diet is the best option. The abdomen is one of the hardest areas of the body to train, so do not give up if you don't see results easily.
Good luck :)
