GRANT SELECT, INSERT, DELETE ON database TO username@'localhost' IDENTIFIED BY 'password';

You can use UPDATE in the list too.

MySQL Grant

MySQL Table Privileges

Old; but just because it comes first when you query about "mysql grants to create table" GRANT SELECT, INSERT, UPDATE, DELETE, CREATE, DROP, ALTER, LOCK TABLES, SHOW VIEW ON database.* TO 'user'@'host'
