DOM-example (supporting any number of child nodes):

$doc1 = new DomDocument;
$doc1->load('test.xml');

$doc2 = new DomDocument();
$createdObj = $doc2->appendChild($doc2->createElement('testing'));

$createdObj->appendChild(
  $doc2->importNode($doc1->documentElement, true)
);

echo $doc2->saveXml();
