What happen if you put an egg into a container of water?
It sinks.
How can you make it float?
You need to make the egg less dense or the water more dense.
I don't know how to readily change the density of an egg, but I do know how you can make the water more dense: SALT.
Start adding salt a tablespoon at a time. It takes a bunch of salt, so don't give up. Eventually, there will be enough salt dissolved in the water and the egg will float.

A Note:
Don't be all fancy and use kosher salt. Regular old salt works better - the smaller size makes it dissolve easier. Go ahead, ask me how I know (and then look at the picture above to find the answer).
