Those are ideal for abs and butt. Squats are the best exercise ever for your thighs, leg lifts, bicycles and crunches are perfect for your abs. Try adding a little weight for the squats, wear a back pack to make it more challenging. Try getting enough weight where you can do around 8-16 and do that for 3-4 sets but dont do it every day, try every other day for a few months. After that go for something more advanced for more results.

Getting a nice set of abs is such a misunderstood process. It’s actually a lot easier than most people think which is why most people are in a never ending quest to get that perfect six pack – it’s because they’re doing all the wrong things.
When you eat more calories than you burn, your body takes those extra calories and stores them as fat somewhere on your body. For some people, the #1 fat storage area is around the thighs and for others it might be around the stomach – it differs from person to person. Sometimes the fat is perfectly distributed around the body so it’s not as big of a concern.
If an excessive amount of fat is stored around your stomach, the reason that you’re not seeing your abs is because your body fat percentage is too high. What you need to do is create a calorie deficit (take in less calories than you burn) so that your body is forced to use its fat stores for energy. After a few weeks of doing this, you’ll notice that your abs will start to show.
You first step is to figure out how many calories you burn each day. Use this calculator http://calorieneedscalculator.com for an estimate. Now you need to increase the amount of calories you burn by exercising more and decreasing the amount of calories you eat. Cut out junk food such as fast food, candy and sugar. Eat foods that are high in fiber: bread and pasta made from 100% whole wheat, brown rice, oats, fruits and vegetables.
You shouldn’t ignore targeting your abs with sit ups, leg raises and twists but doing hundreds of sit ups won’t do anything about the layer of fat that is covering them. Cardio and calorie restriction should be your main focus. If you need more details on getting a six pack, visit The Straight Health Forums – http://forums.straighthealth.com

Those are good exercises but exercise is only half of it. You need a proper diet to get a six pack and have awesome abs.

I would suggest doing these exercises that work out the abs and the butt at the same time (see included links for description on how to perform the exercises):
1.) Lunge and Twist – http://www.sparkpeople.com/resource/exercises.asp?exercise=30
2.) Swimming exercise – http://www.sparkpeople.com/resource/exercises.asp?exercise=6
3.) Step Up and Twist – http://shine.yahoo.com/channel/health/fresh-fitness-tips-step-up-with-a-torso-twist-289875/
