Access Subfolder using .htaccess

Here is my directory structure:

- parent
    - child-folder-1
         index.php
    - child-folder-2
         index.php
    .htaccess

I want that when I visit example.com it should load the index.php file from child-folder-1 directory and when I hit example.com/xyz it should load the index.php from child-folder-2.

What should be the contents for my .htaccess file?

Assuming example.com is the only domain that points to your account then you don't need to explicitly check for this in the rules, so you could do something like the following in the root .htaccess file using mod_rewrite:

RewriteEngine On

RewriteRule ^$ child-folder1/index.php [L]
RewriteRule ^xyz$ child-folder2/index.php [L]

Note that if you have existing directives in your .htaccess file then the order of the directives can be important. These rewrites would need to come after any canonical redirects.
