Your goal here will be to dissipate the kinetic energy of the falling egg in some way rather than breaking the egg. Energy is going to be conserved, one way or another. Any of this energy that can be used to do work on something else is work that will not be available to break the egg. This means that you want to build a structure to surround that will undergo "controlled crushability". You want the structure to collapse without completely coming apart. Assemble your structure so that paper will tear, straws will bend, tape will rip etc. You will also want the structure to distribute any force that is applied to the egg evenly across the surface of the egg. The real issue here is "energy conservation".
