A few more suggestions in addition to major museums:

Amstelkring Museum, Catholic church hidden in attic of 17c merchant's house 

Amsterdam Museum

Royal Palace, Dam Square

Rembrandt House

Also recommend a day trip (by train) to the Hague- Binnenhof (Parliament) and Mauritshuis

and Delft (Vermeer museum, Prinsenhof museum)

Enjoyed them all!

Let me second the recommendation of the Rembrandt House. Rembrandt was a very successful artist not only for the quality of his work but also financially. But he was even better at spending money. 🤣 And went bankrupt. 😒 The Dutch, being very good bookkeepers, were able to reconstruct his house the way it was before the bankruptcy.

@Fairwinds789; these are good recommendations. However both the Amsterdam Museum and the Binnenhof in The Hague are closed indefinitely for major renovations. No opening date has been set yet for either of them, but it won’t be in the next couple of years. 
The Amstelkring museum is better known under its official name Ons lieve heer op solder or Our lord in the attic https://opsolder.nl/en/
