here is my data in mysql table:
name childid city 11,12,13 maintain 21,22,29 pool 33,39,100
I want to get data as the below format. So I can use it to join another tables.
11 city 12 city 13 city 21 maintain 22 maintain 29 maintain 33 pool 39 pool 100 pool

This is a very bad format, as no doubt comments and other answers will tell you. You want a junction table — and this is perhaps why you want this query.
The simplest way is if you have a table of all valid child ids. Then you can do:
select c.id, d.name from mydata d join children c on find_in_set(c.id, childid) > 0;
