Abdominal workout without stressing back?

I have a minor back problem due to three bulging discs in my lower back. Ever since my injury simple crunches put too much stress on my lower back and can be very painful. I am looking for some fun, simple, abdominal exercises that will work around my back problems! Thanks!

You can do a cable crunches by pulling your upper body down (slightly bending) while standing, holding an overhead cable for resistance.
